Hi

 

I have a dashboard in Power BI Service and i'm trying to publish to web and then export to CSV.
But there is no option to export to CSV from the Dashboards.

Could you tell me please if there are some way to do that.
Thanks in advance.

Hi Pablo

 

Sorry for the delay in getting back to you. Firstly, most of my experience has been with PBI Desktop, not PBI Service. In addition, I have only been a member of this community for a relatively short period of time. So, I am by no means an expert. 

 

I dialed into my PBI Service account to have a look at what you have mentioned and agree there appears to be no option to export to CSV from the dashboards. The only place I can see you can do that is in the reports section. 

 

In the absense of any other members out there having a suggestion for you on that, it might be a good enhancement request to make to make on the Power BI Ideas site.

    Hi Guys, 

     

    I have just seen this thread, but this workaround might help anyone in the future: 

    if you want to export to csv from BI Desktop including all your calculated columns. Put a table visual, add all your fields. Press ... and export.

     

    Hope this helps.
