    UPDATE: Your spreadsheet did work, I just needed to upgrade to the latest release of Power BI for desktop.

     

    Hi Will, that did not work for me. The visualization is just blank. Here were my steps:

    (1) download the spreadsheet

    (2) open PowerBI for Desktop

    (3) import the spreadsheet table

    (4) select all three fields, creating a table in the viewer

    (5) selected the Sankey visualization

     

    Any advice?

    Thanks for pointing me to the example data, BUT it still wouldn't plot (showing only chart title).

     

    Makes me wonder- Do I have download some javascript or d3 component for the visual to show?

     

    FYI, I am using PowerBI desktop. Saved the example data to my local machine and then added the downloaded data to the PowerBI project. Then I try to use Sankey visual with no avail.
