Line Chart Labels Directly at the end of each line

[dkernen]

In Tableau, you can easily label each line in a line chart at the end (or beginning) of the line to make it easier for the reader to see the different categories.  I see only one idea posted on the ideas site 

https://ideas.powerbi.com/ideas/idea/?ideaid=1f8c40e1-97ae-4ecb-85db-d3ad44f64220

 but this seems like very basic functionality.  I want to label the lines directly and not need the color legend to identify my lines.  Is this possible to do?

Hi, @dkernen 

For now, powerbi does not support this feature.You can manually adding a text box for each line chart.

You can also consider customizing a tooltip for the your line chart. When the mouse hovers over the line chart, it will display a tooltip page containing the label name .

In researching this more, I am perplexed how this isn't possible.  In Excel, you have the capability of labeling the series or the category.  Thank you to the two who offered ideas to label the value, but I need to label the category/series.  What I want is to look something like this, where the lines are labeled directly AND the label name is the same color as the line.

What I am doing now is deleting the legend and then manually creating a title that is colored appropriately, which is still not ideal.

Are you able to use custom visuals? There might be something in those, such as this one that lets you add custom annotations to any data point: https://appsource.microsoft.com/en-us/product/power-bi-visuals/WA104381315?tab=Overview
