Downloading Data through Power Automate
- 1 year ago
Hi Anonymous
This is what I've did for this usecase
First step,
You have to run a query against dataset, to get the query you need
Open Power BI Desktop, create a table with all the fields you need
Then go in optimize Performance analyzer; in the pane click on Start recording and refesh visual and copy query
(You can remove the total of the table before to refresh visual)
Then in Power Automate, you paste the code in a run query against dataset (you have to select your workspace and your dataset)
Then in Power automate you add a select from Power Automate
the tricky part is to make the mapping, to do that, you have to use the following formula instead of entry value
item()?['[your fieldname]']
Once you will save, the formula should appear as a power bi item
Then create a csv table using the output of the previous step
And then use an action to publish this csv on a sharepoint site or a public place (like a blob storage with a public access)
In my case, I used an amazon S3 Bucket
For the refresh, you have to schedule your dataflow at the frequency you need
Do not hesistate to ask if you need more help 🙂
Thank you so much. I will try this and let you know soon..But thank you again for taking your time to write this procedure.
