Write back to database using Power BI report
- Anonymous5 years ago
Hi Mystery,
AFAIK, power bi desktop does not include any writeback features. It is a reporting tool that is used to get data from specific data sources and design charts and visualizations.
If you want to do writeback operations, you may need to use external tools or integrated external features. (e.g. powerapps, r script, python)
Using Python in Power BI Power Query Editor - Power BI | Microsoft Docs
Use R in Power Query Editor - Power BI | Microsoft Docs

Hey Mystery ,
you could use custom visuals like Acterys Table Edit or the Power ON Power planner, but they are more expensive.
PowerApps will be the cheapest option.

Thanks Denis.
Power apps is the obvious solution,I agree.
Could you please suggest any other option by which this could be achieved.
To give more details the requirement is that once the Power bi service renders the report a second report should be presented to the user which should have some fields in which the user can input planned values for the future.the same should be pushed back to the database,and the first report should pick up those changes and populate a graph accordingly.
anything other than power apps you could think of.
