I want to trigger an automation (Integromat / Make) based on data from a filtered view of a Power BI report page.
The obvious solution would be to calculate everything before writing to the database. So I would trigger the automation based on the data read directly from it.
But I want to be able to use metrics from PowerBI as data source.
And I also want to be able to filter the data before extracting it.
Is that possible?
I can use DAX within automation tools?
Yes, from SSIS, PowerShell, Power Automate etc.
You can run DAX queries against Power BI datasets. No need to torture the report.
