@lbendlin I want the user to be able to update records within the database.  I thought Power BI would be able to accommodate this by simply adding some logic to a button to update a table within the database.

Dashboards are not interactive. Did you mean a report?

 

You may want to look into using PowerAutomate visuals for this.
