Hello
How can I export the underlying data of a matrix visual in xls so that I do not have the 30k limit of csv?
The save dialog box does not allow me to choose xls, only csv.
Thanks!
Solved! Go to Solution.

Hi,
There is no option to export a metrix as excel in Power BI Desktop. But you can export a metrix to excel in Power BI Service.
Thank you.
