Powerapps Visual- No Data in PowerBIIntergation.Data
Hi Community,
Does anyone use Power App Visual in Power BI and linked the Power BI data to Power Apps？
When I was navigated to Power Apps, I can see the Power Integration in my navigators, however, I was unable to see any data in it and I can't changes the gallery ' item to PowerBIIntergation.
I guess there are some missing steps?

(For anyone who also have interest in powerapps visuals）
Many Thanks.
Try this
- start with a fresh Power BI Desktop
- Help ... Sample Data ... Load
- Add Country, Sales and Year to a table visual
- change the visual to a PowerApps visual
- authenticate and let PowerApps do its thing
You end up with an automatically added gallery
Save and share
Back in Power BI change pages, change back, then select existing app
Pick your app, and you're done

FYI I was facing same issue today (November 2024)
I managed to solved it by adding the PowerApps visual and select "Create New App" directly from PowerBi Webapp in the navigator.
It seems that trying to do that from Power BI desktop is not working propely right now and PowerBIIntregration bring an empty Data collection.
Once setup was done. I just saved report on the navigator and continue my work on a freshly new .pbix downloaded locally.HI,
Yes I have done this in the past with other power apps integrations. The problem is having to recreate a large power app. Copying and pasting code helps only a little until you find out that any positioning functions and variables are not copied across only the calculated value.
The fact that months of work is lost because of invisible connection code gets corrupted with no ability to refresh the connection is laughably ridiculous and typical Microsoft business as usual.
I have since abandoned the plaform and convinced my boss to just make browser based apps that communicate with an api that is ~100 times faster than power apps with 1/2 the development time and a order magnitude more flexibility and expandibilty.This is the real solution 😊
I had this issue - after adding the Power Apps visualization, nothing showed in my Power Apps. None of the fields I passed were showing.
To solve this, I was able to go in through the edit in Power Bi, to edit my Power Apps. My app was blank - nothing there, but the Power BI Integration tag was showing as a connection.
I first added a vertical gallery, connected it to the Power Bi integration. Once I did that I was then able to type in the PowerBiintegration.data.fieldname and get forms and other things to work. For some reason it wanted the gallery first, then that made the connection. After that I deleted the gallery and was still able to use my form. Phew! Why are these simple things so hard!
For Power BI Integration to be available the Powerapp must have been created from the visual. You can wire in an existing PowerApp but it will not have the Power BI Integration.
Yes, I just try it again via clicking the button in powerapps visual and create power app from power bi.
Here are my steps:
1. drag a powerapps visual in Power BI
2. put some field in it
3. Navigate to the power app canvas
4.Click "generate gallery"
5. modify the "item"of gallery as "PowerBIIntegration.Data"
Still no data, no idea what is missing.
wizardball Any solution you found?
Still not works.
Appreciate anyone can give me a clue about the possible solutions

This isn't even close to the solution. That issue still exists
I have tried for months on and off to get this working but to no avail.
I have tried all the iterations multiple times plus variations and i still cant get PowerBIIntergration to link to my data sets in Power Bi.
Is there a setting i have missed in PowerApps or Power BI i have missed?
I have watched and tried copying endless videos, but cant find one that works.
Any guidance on what im doing wrong will help.

The only way to make it work is to create the PowerApp from within the Power BI visual. You will never get the integration if you create the PowerApp natively.
Yes that is what I did
I have a critical level ticket with MS and 3 hours of meetings and still no answer.
havin the same problem as the prev. poster also opened powerApps from powerBI directly but still the data is not showing there
