I'm developing Power BI dashboard which shows some anomalies in database to the user. He then should decide what to do: correct data with new value (manual input), or flag it for future offline analysis (manual selection of flag) - so I need in SQL INSERT statement run on Azure database. As far as I understood so far, Power BI doesn't provide any functionality for writing data into database? So there are no options to interact somehow? If I use URL in a table structure, I still can't enter required values manually and can't forward these values to database. Even if I add standard HTML visual, it doesn't allow processing of link clicks or button pressing.
What would be suggestions from experts?
Hi @Alexei,
As Power BI is a Business Intelligence tool for users to fetch and analyze underlying data, there is no build-in options to edit or insert data records in database. However, here is a similar thread in which some workarounds are mentioned. Could you go to check if it help in your scenario? ![]()

Thank you to pointing to the thread.
However, I already noticed that MS announced PowerApps tool: https://powerapps.microsoft.com/en-us/blog/powerbi-powerapps-visual/ what is intended to do exactly what's required. No any documentation so far, and any clue how to tune it, but anyway it looks like it exists.
Check out the April 2026 Power BI update to learn about new features.
