Hi,
I'm new to PowerBI, I was wondering if there is a possiblity to trigger a pyspark process in a dashboard.
Eventually I want to have a dashboard that allow the user to input some parameters (like dates,locations etc..)
and then accordingly run a pyspark process to compute some logic on big data which output a dataframe with the results.
these results should be fed back to PowerBI dashboard.
When I used Tableau, I used tabpy as a backend process which was triggered and return data to Tableau.
Is it possible to do such thing in PowerBI?
Solved! Go to Solution.
Hi @Aizenn,
AFAIK, current power bi does not include writeback features, you may need to use other product to achieve these.
For example, you can try to use PowerApps to create an canvas app about submit data operations.
Write data in a Power Apps canvas app - Training | Microsoft Learn
After these steps, you can integrate this app to power bi report side with power apps visual.
