Hi @Anonymous
Are you talking about writeback? Being able to input data like you can in Excel and all other values update. That is currently not supported natively. Natively because there are third party vendors that provide such a service. Even so, it isn't as simple as importing a custom visual. Acterys among others are some of the vendors. There is even one in the appstore that has demo:https://appsource.microsoft.com/en-us/product/power-bi-visuals/creativedataeuropesl1660024750400.writebackgrid?tab=overview
Hello @Anonymous
Yes, it is possible to show input data to visual in power bi, here are the following steps to achieve it:
If you wanted to get that table visual in report view there us an visual in visualization bar, use it to achieve your goal.
please mark it as a solution, it will help more users with the same problem, thank you in advance!
Hi @Anonymous - Can you please add some more details about expectations, as mentioned in subject sentence: in Power BI, you cannot directly input data into a Table visual as you might in Excel or other spreadsheet programs.
You can manually create a small table by going to Home > Enter Data in Power BI Desktop. This allows you to enter static data directly into Power BI, which then becomes a new table that can be used in visuals.(small datasets) you can create it.
another way, Power BI and Power Apps integration offers an excellent solution for interactive data entry and can add a lot of value
Hope this helps.
