Imagine using the capabilities of SSIS or plain SQL Server and/or to execute Power Query transformations at high speeds. I see Power BI Designer as the transformations editor + small data transformation tool and SSIS/SQL as the big data transformation tool.

PowerView does not take input parameters at run time. In order to change the data being presented at runtime the user must use a filter or the query author must use a non-deterministic function in the query (e.g. MyDate = GETUTCDATE () ). Neither approach allows a user to create an optimal request that brings down just the data he/she wants to see. My understanding is that filtering in Power View requires the superset of data to be retrieved before the filter is applied. Nondeterministic functions do not provide the flexibility of parameters. This will be an important feature when dealing with datasets large enough to cause performance and/or stability issues.

Either a transferable ownership in case someone leaves or make the publisher of the SSAS model use an administrator account to publish so a new administrator can take over. An example - someone changes to a different role and a new owner takes over the server but the new owner cannot own the connection without deleting and re-building, which causes downstream users to lose their connection to the model and have to rebuild (similar with Data Catalog breakages).

Currently many teams manage SSAS role-based security using service accounts. However, service accounts are incompatible with O365 and the new two-factor authentication introduced by MSFT. Need a workaround to use role-based security with the new PowerBI Service.

When connecting to a model the user should be able to see the following information to help them better understand what they are connecting to and whether the data is applicable to them: • quality of data • certification state of data • steps to obtain access to data • size of underlying data model and speed of data • documentation for the data (if data model, fields and table overviews)

Allow "white labeling" or "reselling" of the Power BI service to support internal and external users. I speak to at least a client a week that is interested in this use case. GoodData API on apiary.io seems to support this.

I have 40,000 values in some of my core filters. Because the web UI only supports browsing through the filter values, I have to pre-filter each dashboard. I need the same search UI available in Excel filters.
