A current limitation in Power BI SWITCH measures (and all Power Pivot actually) is that a SWITCH measure must have a single format. It is currently not possible to conditionally format the measure result based on any criteria - it is one single format only. There are valid use cases where you may want to change the format of the SWITCH measure depending on the result. Consider the following SWITCH statement myMeasure = SUMX(MeasureTable,switch([selected measure], 1,[Total Sales], 2,[Total Cost], 3,[Total Margin], 4,[Chg Sales vs LY %] )) The first 3 results are all currency format, but the last result is a percentage format. This currently can't be controlled. I would like to see an optional 3rd parameter in the SWITCH statement to set an alternate number format.

Power BI should have a Lite License for people that only consume dashboards or reports every now and then. This is for people that don't create reports but need to see the dashboards and may need to use the "report level" to be able to export output to PowerPoint (since you can't export the dashboard to PowerPoint but can only do it at Report level).

Currently when using SQLDB if we enter the server name / dns into SSMS or another tool it will fail as the connection defaults to master and the yser has no rights. We then have to manually add database, which is a GUID iso impossible to remember! Please allow the user(s) public rightsr in the master so that we can connect in SSMS and other tools and then select the database from pull down. This is how every other edition of SQL works!

We are going to clean up the database name, but we won't be allowing connection access to master.

All of the current Ideas that mention SAP BusinessObjects BI Universe integration are marked as completed as this feature was offered pre June/July release. This is nearly a critical requirement for adoption in my organization. I had previously heard that this was removed due to licencing restrictions, can we get an official response on that? Is there any possibility of this being re-integrated?

The new feature Export to PDF appears to be just a screen capture of each report - whatever is currently being shown on the screen is what is captured in the pdf. When a report has a Table or Matrix visualization on it with rows that scroll beyond what is shown, these are not captured in the pdf. Need to have all the data show up in the pdf.

It's hard to convince colleagues to use Power BI in case they using linux. With a Linux version (ubuntu?) of the Power BI Desktop they would not need to install a VM or similar.

Description: We are currently facing challenges with monitoring our Power BI instances due to the absence of the memory consumption metric in the capacity metrics app. The current CU consumption metric does not provide a complete picture, leading to gaps in monitoring and difficulties in identifying issues with our Power BI reports. Problem Statement: Previously, the capacity metrics app provided insights into memory consumption, which allowed us to effectively monitor and manage our Power BI instances. However, with the removal of this metric, we are now unable to fully understand the behavior of our instances based solely on CU consumption. This has resulted in a lack of comprehensive monitoring and has impacted our ability to address performance issues promptly. Proposed Solution: We propose that Microsoft reinstates the memory consumption metric in the capacity metrics app. This would provide a more holistic view of resource utilization and enable us to monitor our Power BI instances more effectively. By having access to memory consumption data, we can better manage our resources, identify potential issues early, and ensure optimal performance of our Power BI reports.

The capacity metrics app is focused on capacity metrics only. Workload specific metrics like analysis services memory consumption, spark metrics or DW insights fall outside of the focus area of capacity metrics and would complicate the user experience. BYOLA is a solution that you can use for obtaining these metrics and if that doesn't meet your needs please submit a new idea for a more holistic monitoring solution, this is something we're considering as part of a broader monitoring effort.

It seems unfair that Power BI desktop is updated each month with new and improved visuals but we will have to wait several months longer to have these improvements in Power BI Report Server. For example the new matrix visual is big improvement but those with Report Server will have to wait about 6 months before it is available to them. I'd like Report Server updates in parallel to Desktop updates.

I have being using F SKU for personal development and a side project using my personal credit card, and I feel strongly an option to suspend the capacity is very important to have a pleasant experience, I notice, whenever I work with Fabric, I always have a worry that I forget to turn it off, I am not suggesting here an auto suspend and resume with a minimum 1 minute. but an option just to suspend the capacity in 2 hours or 3 hours or something like that. I think it will make the experience more joyful. I know you can write script to do that, but Fabric is sold as a SAAS, and it is not fair to expect an average user to become an expert in Azure resource management. Yes, Microsoft may lose a bit of revenue in the short term, but it will pay off in the long term.

Currently each Power BI report published to the Report Server has its own data source embedded within the report. Any change in the source would require us to change hundreds of published reports individually. Could we have a shared data source/connection similar to SSRS Reports that would help us manage deployment and changes much more efficiently.
