    Hi rangineniaditya,

     

    Hi Based on my research, currently it is not possible to install Power BI desktop on Ubuntu. You can install the desktop on a Windows VM to work around. By the way, there is an idea about that, you can vote it up.

     

    Regards,

      Hi rangineniaditya,

       

      Does that make sense? If so, kindly mark my answer as a solution to close the case please.

    I have tried that and running PowerBI as well as other MSoft applications on a VM is annoyingly slow.... when I have tried to do a transformation of data it just keeps spinning the wheel and nothing happens. PowerBI online on the other hand doesn't seem to have power query access.
