How to Create a Kanban-Style Board (To Do / In Progress / Done) in Power BI?

Hi AnkitaaMishra,

danextian You’re correct, setting up a Kanban-style board like Azure DevOps in Power BI is challenging since there isn’t a built-in visual for that layout. While you can try to replicate it with the new Card visual, Tile slicer, or Matrix using SVG or image URLs, this approach can be complex and not very flexible.

If you want to display task status in a board format, it’s easier to use a custom Kanban visual from AppSource, such as Tasks Viewer – Kanban Chart or PowerGraph Task Board. These options let you organize tasks by columns like “To Do,” “In Progress,” and “Done,” including details such as assignee and due date, for a clearer result.

For more advanced customization, the Deneb visual is another option, allowing you to create your own Kanban layout with Vega-Lite specs.

For real-time interaction, such as dragging tasks between columns or editing details, embedding a Power Apps visual in Power BI is best. You can design a Power Apps canvas app for interactivity and integrate it with Power BI to manage tasks and view analytics together.
