Accessibility Support

After a review earlier this year, we found that there where to many gaps in pbi when compared with the wcag standard. So it would be good if this would be pushed up the priority list so it would get fixed.

This is a requirement for many of our government clients. Any plans for this?

We really need this - this is a requirement for widespread adoption of the tool in the Canadian Federal Government and I suspect it's the same for most levels of government in other countries. Can we get someone from the pbi team to comment on whether or not this is part of the development roadmap?

The reports are impossible to read using a screen reader. Even if you take the time to read their manual, which shouldn't be needed in the first place.

Yes this is a big problem for us (working in Sweden), that public published reports in Power BI are not up to accessibility standards. Not even the "Show keyboard shortcuts" menu is readable using screen reader (an image without alt-text ?) (if you even mangage to navigate into the report).

With a screenreader tool (like JAWS) blind people always need to be informed by a speaker what they should “see” on the screen. The problem we are facing is about the folder and the paginated reports itself on the website. It is not about the data in the paginated report. While navigating through the main page and focusing the folder or the paginated reports, those elements are not telling the user that these elements are interactive, like e.g. the “three dot menu” tells “Weitere Informationen LINK”. In conclusion the user does not know that this tile will open a link.
