Need an Idea to update meeting notes

[chitti5]

Hello everyone, I'm not sure if this is the correct forum to ask this question. I conduct all the cross functional meetings by using Sharepoint list to take updates on projects from the team members. The Share point view consists of Project Title, Project Description, Project Manager Name and lastly Meeting notes. The sharepoint view is not user friendly to update the notes. When I share the screen, people in the meeting are not able to read it properly and I'm not able to update the notes quickly in the column. Is there any customized view or App that I can use to take meeting notes. I've already used Power Apps to write back to Sharepoint list but people didn't like it much. Looking for a great idea which can change the concept of taking notes.

Thank you!

Hi @chitti5 ,

Based on the information you have provided, you may want to consider using Power BI to visualise and interact with meeting notes. You can follow the steps below to achieve your goal:

1. Connect SharePoint list as a data source in Power BI.
   
   See the following link for details:
   Create a semantic model from a SharePoint List - Power BI | Microsoft Learn
2. Design a Power BI report that can include filters for Project Title, Project Description, Project Manager Name and so on, to make it easier for users to find and read notes of interest to them.
3. The report can also be embedded back into a SharePoint site to allow users to interact with the minutes directly in SharePoint.
   
   See the link below for more information:
   Embed a report web part in SharePoint Online - Power BI | Microsoft Learn
4. Meeting notes can be updated in SharePoint using Power BI's "Quick Edit" feature, and the updates will then be reflected in the Power BI report.

If you have any questions about the creation process, please feel free to ask us.

Hi @Anonymous Thank you so much for sharing this idea. I tried this and was successful in creating a report web in sharepoint. But, the major reason for asking a new approach is to show the audience while updating notes and make live changes to the  below screenshoted list I'll be presenting during the meeting. 

I'm not sure how to do that. I feel the idea you shared will embed the power bi into sharepoint list but I think from your idea I still need to go back to sharepoint list to update the notes and then refresh power bi to show the updated notes.

This is my meeting notes layout after I embedded into Sharepoint list. Please let me know if there is any way to update the notes in this "meeting notes" card instead of going back to the list to update it.

Thanks a lot in advance!!
