Visual object downloaded from Microsoft app source

[Anonymous]

Hello everyone!

If I download a .pbiviz visual from the Microsoft store, and it is certified by Microsoft, and install it in my .pbix, even if in the future the owner who uploaded the object to the store deletes it, the one I uploaded to my .pbix will still work?

Thank you so much!

Hi @Anonymous ,

Based on your problems, I think whatever you download a certified Power BI visual from the Microsoft store and install it in your file, it should continue to work even if the original owner who uploaded it to the store deletes it.

As you said, the Power BI visual object you downloaded is certified. 

If it has an authentication status and is yellow or blue, they will continue to function even if the original uploader removes them from the store. You can also read this official document for more information, which may help you to understand more: Get your Power BI visuals certified - Power BI | Microsoft Learn
