Best solution to input data on database Form?

‎04-04-2018 10:31 AM

Hello PowerBI-ers!

 

Case: Create a test demo for User to input data on a form which changes BI Viz real-time

 

Which is the best solution for User to input data on a database form?

(1) Embed Form in BI Report

(2) Create PowerApp, then embed BI Report

(3) Other?

 

Thanks a ton!

Well, you would need a Direct Query (live) connection to your data obviously. The route that I have been seeing people take with this is to create a PowerApp application and then use the PowerApp visualization to embed it into the Power BI report.
