I was wondering if you had any accessibility capabilites in Power BI? Such as alternate text for the visually impaired? 

Thanks

hi, @MommaGrape

Power BI has features that enable people with disabilities to more easily consume and interact with Power BI reports. These features include the ability to consume a report using the keyboard or a screen reader, tabbing to focus on various objects on a page, and thoughtful use of markers in visualizations.

Hi Lin,

 

We are testing the accessibility features for reports in Power BI service portal (https://app.powerbi.com). We have noticed that we are able to use the narrator and traverse till the report in workspace. Till workspace all the HTML elements are traversing in sequential order, but we are unable to traverse sequetially in report (charts/filters).

Is there any way to configure the visualizations/slicers to follow sequence?
Can you please help us on this ?

 

Thanks,

Naresh Maddi.
