How do I create a like/dislike button

Im trying to create a like/dislike button that when clicked would write back into excel and add either like or dislike into a cell. Does anyone know how to do that?

That is a great idea but what if there was no data in the liked portion of the table, how would I get it so that likes would get added to the table

Hi @Anonymous 

 

Power BI currently doesn't have a writeback capability. You can try using PowerApps or PowerAutomate or a combination of both.

That's a good idea, the only issue I have with power apps and power automate is that I cant seem to figure out how to get the likes/dislikes to appear on a certain cell without creating a new row

First, you need to create two measures in Power BI to track the number of likes and dislikes. These measures will act as counters.

 

LikesCount = COUNTROWS(FILTER('YourTable', 'YourTable'[Liked] = "Like"))

DislikesCount = COUNTROWS(FILTER('YourTable', 'YourTable'[Liked] = "Dislike"))

 

Replace with your Table.
