Write back options in Power BI with SSAS tabular model
The method used in the link you shared involves using Power Apps and making use of the Power Apps custom visual or the application this particular website is attempting to sell. Power BI itself isn't doing any write backs, but is simply surfacing up a Power Apps solution. Its Power Apps (and flow) that would be handling any of the data updates. The Power On app i have no experience with, but it likely has its own limitations. I'm unsure what access these apps have to the data within the report it is surfaced within, if any.
Thanks for the reply. I understand Power BI is a reporting tool. But Oracle BI is also a reporting tool which has write back feature wherein user can write data to db and see the result back in UI.
Saw this link somewhere which talks about write back but need some more details.
