Pagination & Row Index Support for Table Visuals in Power BI

Enhancement for Power BI table visuals, specifically adding native pagination support and an optional row index (sequential numbering) display for tables on dashboards.

Current Limitation in Power BI

  • Tables in dashboards are scrollable but do not support true pagination.

  • There is no built-in option to display automatic row index numbers (e.g., 1, 2, 3, …).

  • For long tables, this affects usability and readability, especially in executive-facing dashboards.

Proposed:

  • Add a simple option in table visual settings:
    • Enable / Disable Pagination

    • Set rows per page (e.g., 10, 25, 50, 100)

  • Add an optional toggle:
    • “Show Row Index”

    • Automatically generate a dynamic sequential number column

    • Respects sorting and filtering context
