Increase the data export row limit (30,000 rows max) in Power BI Report Server

[kenwe]

The capability to export raw data from Power BI is an important function for many users. Presently, the export data limits are as follows and confirmed at the community link below. - Power BI Service (cloud platform): 150,000 row maximum - Power BI Report Server (on-premise platform): 30,000 row maximum Please increase the export limit setting on Report Server to match that of Service. Better yet, increase them both to a much higher limit as requested by others in separate idea posts. http://community.powerbi.com/t5/Report-Server/What-is-the-Export-data-row-count-limit-for-Power-BI-Report/m-p/343951

'@admin - so do we have to have another item to vote on to address the "better yet, increase them both to a much higher limit..."???

Hi, I am wondering if there are any future plans to increase the export limit to beyond 150k? other BI tools don't seem to have this limitation when exporting data.

One of the biggest hurdles I face, in transitioning my organization to PBI, is this 150K row limit. We are trying to move our associates to use PBI for self-service reporting to provide requested data to external clients, but many of them are LARGE. So even when the client is asking for aggregated data, at the customer level, the customer count far exceeds 150K rows. I build reports for users, and they never use them, because they will not spend the time to break up the data to export and then recombine before sending to the client. This results in request having to go to IT, resulting in longer client wait times and cost to IT to pay a developer to pull the data. Most needed feature in my organization (I support approx. 500 associates who support over half a mill clients).

The developer should have the option to increase export limit. It's really disappointing to see PowerBi having only 150k export limit.

Thanks for your feedback - we are including the ability to Export to Excel from visuals with the Jan 2020 release, and this will up the export limit to the same levels as the PBI Service (150k rows).
