How to retrieve table data from Power BI desktop into custom visual?
I figured it out. Had to modify capabilities.json and use DataViewMappings in my visual.ts file.

Cake walk in the park :)
Glad to hear that you've solved this problem and thank you for sharing the solution. You could mark it as answer so that other community members might gain benefits.
Could you post what you ended up with, by any chance? I think I have a similar problem and don't know how to access table data mapping values in visual.ts.
First, I would read this introduction on DataView: DataView Introduction
Also go over DataViewMappings here: DataViewMappings
Then follow this great example: Build Your Custom Visuals Power BI
I believe those three links above will set you on the right track. Good luck.
I have seen first two links and didn't find them particularly helpful,
The third example though is great indeed - many thanks!
