Hi
I hope someone can help
I have an existing power App which I would like to add to my power BI report
The functionality I would like is to use a piechart to filter the app entries. i.e. if I see that person X has the most amount of tasks in the database (via the pie chart) I would like to click on their segment and the app visual would just filter to their tasks.
Both the pie chart (via BI) and the app are connected to the same Sharepoint list
Thanks for your help
Matt
Not sure if this is still relevant, but might want to check out this thread
Follow the tutorial from Rezza
& Make sure to make editing using power bi service (publish to workspace first, then click edit the power apps visual), not in power bi desktop (else might the items might not appear when using power bi integration)
Hi
Im afraid I never found a solution to this
Matt
Hi
To add some detail, the app also does not filter when I select the app visual and use the filters pane
Thanks
Matt
Hi @Matt22365 ,
The PowerApps custom visual has these limitations:
https://docs.microsoft.com/en-us/powerapps/maker/canvas-apps/powerapps-custom-visual
Please check if you have encountered any of these limitations.
Best Regards,

@Matt22365 , When you add power BI app, You need to add a few columns there(Juts like we add a field to visuals). Make sure you have added columns you want to pass and interactions are on.

Hi
Thanks for the quick response.
I have added the same columns into the values field as I have in the app itself but the app visual still is not filtering.
All the other visuals on the screen are filtering so i think its the connection between BI and App
Thanks
Matt
@Matt22365 Did you check Format | Edit Interactions?
Hi
Thanks for the quick response
The interaction symbols are not appearing on the app visual like they do for the others
Thanks
Matt
@Matt22365 Pie chart and PowerApp work for me:
Hi
Apologies, I see it now
However the pie chart does not filter the app gallery
Thanks
Matt
@Matt22365 Sorry, hard to visualize what you are seeing. Can you post screen shots at all?
Hi
sure thing, I have attached a simplified screenshot
The issue I am having is that the app does not filter when using the pie charts (or a slicer)
I have changed the category in the bottom pie chart to match the details in the app gallery but that didnt have any affect
Thanks
Matt
@Matt22365 Can you also screen shot your Edit Interactions with the Pie chart selected and the PowerApps in the screen shot as well? Thanks.
Hi
Sure thing
Attached
