I'm seeing that there are occasional hiccups that I would expect from any cloud source so my app retries upload the same rows to a table in Power BI upon failure. However, sometimes that retry creates duplicate rows because the previous try actually succeeded despite the HTTP call returning an error or lost network connectivity. I think you should implement some way of making sure we can reliably ensure we have completed pushing a set of data without creating duplicates. Maybe you just give us the ability to query the model with DAX so we can see if a row exists or not after an upload error. Or maybe there's some other way of getting a status message for a prior request. ... View more

Without the ability to define my model in Excel or the Power BI designer with relationships and DAX calculations and column properties/formatting, it's going to be very difficult to get my dashboards to work and look as I want. I would like to be able to upload an Excel or Power BI Designer model then use the API to push new data into it real-time. I'd also like to be able to schedule refresh and decide what happens to the API pushed data during scheduled refresh. For example, I may upload a model with 100,000 rows, then use the API to add 5,000 new rows. But during scheduled refresh those 5,000 new rows are also in my SQL source so I want to wipe out the API pushed data upon scheduled refresh. ... View more

Please give us the ability to embed Power BI reports in custom apps! For example, a customer-facing web app that need reports would need a way to embed Power BI reports while data (SSAS data model) remains on premises. ... View more

Enable ISVs and system integrators to generate "personal" PBIX files that have a ready-to-use data model and set of filtered data so that a user can navigate into an "exported" dataset. It would be very useful in many applications and service. This could be the format to exchange data models and not just data. It can only provide benefit to the Power BI service also in terms of user adoption, ... View more

REST API access to share a dashboard. It would be really useful to be able to share a dashboard via the API. This would allow us to interact with users on a website or in an application and then present them with a button to "Add To My PowerBI". Or another example, have an API call that I can loop over to share a dashboard with 1000+ users. ... View more

So that PowerBI knows which dashboard or report page to jump to when a tile is clicked on AppPortal. Preferably, the user have the right security to access the right set of data once PBI app is opened automatically. The latter means the API should allow "global filter passing" from other apps such as AppPortal ... View more

An SAP customer views itself as SAP customer first and foremost. A typical SAP company will have $MM+ investment in SAP Business Warehouse (BW). Today, Microstrategy, Tableau and ClickView allow direct connectivity to it. Currently, hundreds of thousands of users worldwide (if not millions) run Business Explorer (BEx) reports against BW and then use VLOOKUPS, HLOOKUPS and SUMIFs to deliver final content to business audiences. Having this connectivity would make their lives much easier and make PowerBI incredibly relevant and important. ... View more
