Is there capability yet to allow me to create a custom action with a Button?

 

I would like to call my Rest API when a user clicks the button. 

 

I see buttons on my PBI Desktop, but I only see Bookmark, Back, and QA as action options.

 

If not in PBI, is there another way to accomplish this?

Hi @Dan949

 

One option is to embed a Power APPS visual into your report, but I suspect that will be pretty locked down to only communicate with Power APP sources so you can't don't out to random api end points and spam the internet 🙂
