Allow Excel Online to connect to a Power BI data source via 'Analyse In Excel'

[tbush]

Now that Power BI has the Analyse in Excel function, can you please make Excel Online (Excel in a browser) connect to the Power BI data source so slicers and timelines function and the workbook can refresh from the Power BI data source?

Can someone from the Power BI team please walk up to the Excel team to get this sorted? Resolving this would be HUGE!

I subscribe "Can someone from the Power BI team please walk up to the Excel team to get this sorted? Resolving this would be HUGE!" The idea is among the most voted for Excel online: https://excel.uservoice.com/forums/274580-excel-online/suggestions/33793252-pivottables-created-with-power-bi-using-analyze-in but no feedback from the Excel Online team 😞

If this is Planned since 2016, why is it not implemented yet? I believe strongly that this use case providing Excel files backed by PowerBI datasets is extremely useful. Especially as Power BI has more connection types than Excel, and why would you rebuild a dataset in Excel if you already have done the work in Power BI. My business clients are desperate for more options in Excel as they transition to using Power BI

I believe that Microsoft should link all of its data related applications to Power BI

PivotTables connected to Power BI datasets are supported in Excel Online.
