Populating a pdf form with power bi query

Hello,  Is it possible to take the data from each row of a power bi query table and then use this to fill in a pdf form?

======sample power bi table ==========

====   col1 -- col 2 --

row1 = 123 --  up --

row2 = 456 --  down --

==============

the pdf form would have two fields that are fillable

number = col1

direction = col2

============

I realize that this can be done with online solutions such as with a sharepoint list or, for instance, with smarsheet but I am wondering if it can also be done with the desktop version of power bi query.

Thank you,

Steve

Hi @selster 

 

It seems there are multiple rows in the sample table. When you use them to fill in a pdf form, you want all values there or just need one row values? 

 

In Power BI Desktop, you could add visuals on a report page and use these two columns to populate them. Then export the report to PDF. See Export reports to PDF - Power BI | Microsoft Docs

I am not sure if you are able to push data to PDF form using Power Query. You may need to look into Power Automate to achieve this.

Posting to the desktop power automate forum, then.  Still if anyone know how to do this with power bi, I would very much appreciate it. SE
