MS Word POWER BI Addon
Other than the Devscope Power BI addon which does not work the way I expected, Can Microsoft provide a POWER BI Add-on which allows us to insert or copy a particular visual into the word document? I'd like to copy paste a particular chart/graph from power BI web/desktop like we can copy graphs from Excel into Word. I tried to export the Power BI report into a powerpoint file but since we have over 15 pages in this PBI Report this was not allowed.
Surely Microsoft can provide this integration between their own products?
I have been using Snagit to copy-paste visuals into a 60 page report, and it's very time consuming. I would appreciate a quicker way to get these visuals into a report.

Hello there,
I work for DevScope and believe our Power BI Tiles Pro add-on does exactly that. Was the add-on you were referring to the online one? Downloaded from Microsoft's App Source? That only allows you to embed real-time reports, but the desktop version lets you insert high-resolution pictures.
Let me know if I can help you.
Hi,
Using the PowerBI Tile pro, is it possible to select a specific tile from a report/Dashboard and display it in your Word document?
Your product mentions regarding the PowerPoint but I am more interested in MS Word. Do you have some video to show a Tile getting refreshed in MS Word document?

Hi, jzaib.
You can add a tile report from a dashboard, but you can't add a specific visual from a report to your word document.
We don' have a specific video for Word, but the process is the exact same as the one in this tutorial for PowerPoint.
Feel free to ask any additional questions.
Hi,
I am trying to solve this with Tiles Pro but unfortunatelly it is not going good job. I am trying to incorporate single objects from our report by pining them to dashboard and than using Tiles Pro to export. While pining my visuals i use report formting options and on dashboar they look like on report, which is perfect. But when i tried to export them with Tiles Pro in Word when are getting dahsboard settings which is resulting in charts and tables i dont want and their supprot just ignore any mail they receive.But if there is another solution i am really interested, i hit dead end on my side.
