Doubt about excel cells and power bi

Hello everybody,

 

I have an excel file which contains cells with different colors,

 

I would like to know if there is a way that power bi recognise these colors to show them into a chart,

 

Thanks

The data connect only read the metadata and raw, it can't get the cell background color and the color can't be imported into query editor. You can try conditional formatting to give different cell background color based on its value.

 

Regards,

thank u so much for this answer! very useful 🙂
