When exporting large amounts of data from a visual, the export may fail or return incomplete results without a clear explanation. Power BI should display a user‑friendly and actionable error message when an export cannot be completed due to data size or platform limits.   This would help users quickly understand the limitation, take corrective actions (such as applying filters or reducing data volume), and avoid confusion caused by partial or failed exports. ...

The standard Slicer visual currently lacks advanced search capabilities such as contains, starts with, and similar operators. These options are available only in the Input Slicer. It would be highly beneficial to combine these functionalities so that users can access advanced search and filtering within a single Slicer visual. This would streamline the filtering experience and reduce the need to use multiple slicer types. ... View more

the power bi analyze feature for bar charts is truly very helpful. we can click analyze the increase, analyze the decrease to identify the trend. one point to be added , sometimes the trends which it shows for fluctuations show id's like salesforce, netsuite id or some keys to identify the pattern. the analysis should be based on descriptive fields like products, regions, account names , country names so it will be easy for business users to understand insights based on descriptive fields rahther than id's or such irrelevent columns. so if the model be trained so that it excludes such id fields or keys and only go for descriptive fields, it will be helpful for end users.   ...

Currently, Excel workbooks connected to a Power BI / Microsoft Fabric semantic model (for example, via Analyze in Excel or Power BI dataset connections) do not automatically refresh when the underlying semantic model is updated. Users must manually open the Excel file and trigger a refresh for the latest data to be reflected.   Current Behavior The semantic model refreshes successfully in Power BI / Fabric. Data refresh occurs only when: The Excel file is opened in Excel Desktop, or A manual refresh is triggered. Expected / Desired Behavior Provide an option to automatically refresh Excel workbooks when the connected semantic model completes a refresh, especially for files stored in OneDrive or SharePoint while opening a report in Excel web. ...

In the current Edit Interactions experience in Power BI Desktop, interaction settings are edited on a visual-by-visual basis. This becomes very time‑consuming when there are many visuals on a page, especially if some are overlapping or hidden.   Proposed improvements: Add buttons to disable all interactions at once and to restore all interactions at once. Add a global interaction panel where designers can see and edit all interaction relationships between visuals (source ↔ targets) in one place, without having to select each visual individually. In summary, these improvements would save time and reduce complexity when designing reports in Power BI Desktop, providing a faster and easier way to manage interactions between visuals. This would make developing any dashboard much more efficient, allowing interaction settings to be edited, reviewed, and adjusted with ease, especially in reports with multiple visuals and complex layouts. ...

Hello    I have a default view in a power BI model on our workspce,which updates daily , the default view is filtered on a sepcific day (yesterday). However when people receive the subscription email they always have to click the refresh button so that it shows the correct date filter. It would be good for the email subscription to be dymnamic in that it opens up with the latest refresh and the correct date filter.    Thanks  Neil  ... View more

In SSMS, we have the option to add a vertical or horizontal tab group, to enable side-by-side viewing of 2 queries at once. This is great for comparisons, multi-tasking and trouble-shooting. Please add this option to the Fabric Warehouse SQL Query Editor view so we can see multiple queries on the same screen without having to constantly switch back and forth between tabs. ... View more

Description: Currently, Power BI treats the primary and secondary Y‑axes as fully independent scales. This often results in misaligned visuals where one measure extends beyond the visible range of the other, depending on which axis has the larger values. As a result, important data points can disappear from view unless users manually adjust axis ranges or build complex DAX measures to force alignment. I would like to propose a simple toggle option in the formatting pane: Secondary Y‑Axis → “Align with primary Y‑axis” (On/Off) What this toggle should do: Automatically synchronize the min/max scale of the secondary Y‑axis with the primary Y‑axis Ensure that the highest value—regardless of whether it comes from the primary or secondary measure—remains visible Remove the need for custom DAX measures that artificially scale values just to achieve alignment Reduce unnecessary model complexity and improve performance by avoiding additional calculated measures Provide a more intuitive and consistent visual experience for end users Why this matters: Many common scenarios (e.g., comparing MTD vs. MTD PY, actual vs. forecast, revenue vs. cost) require both lines to be visually aligned Excel already supports synchronized axes, so users expect similar functionality in Power BI Manual axis configuration is not dynamic and breaks when slicers or filters change A simple toggle would dramatically improve usability without compromising flexibility This feature would make dual‑axis visuals more reliable, easier to interpret, and significantly more user‑friendly. Thank you for considering this improvement — it would be a highly impactful addition to Power BI. ... View more

Hello,  Creating a template in Power BI is useful for maintaining a standard layout for a report/dashboard; however, it doesn't prevent creators from editing postions, colours or layout. It would be useful to be able to make sections uneditable to prevent people from altering areas that you want to be the same across all reports using that template.     ... View more

It would be great to have a hard code in Powerbi. Example: If I hard code a value of "H*&" as "Maximum" then where ever I use "H*&" in Powerbi visualization or Mquery it has to be replaced by "Maximun" provided the data types should be aligned. This would greatly decrease the renaming effort and also allows us to function independently irrespective of data consumed from sources. ... View more

Power BI custom connectors usually require users to manually install and update .mez files in the Power BI Custom Connectors folder.   This creates friction for customers and ongoing support overhead for SaaS vendors distributing connectors to their users. For example, we provide a Teamflect Power BI connector that allows organizations to analyze HR engagement, goals, feedback, and performance data. Every time the connector is updated, customers must manually replace the file, and many end up running outdated versions.   It would greatly improve the ecosystem if our connector could become certified, reducing the manual effort required on both the vendor and customer sides for installation and updates.

Currently, the Forecast feature in Power BI Desktop only allows us to use the “Ignore last” option to exclude recent data points. While helpful, this approach is limited because it only removes a fixed number of periods at the end of the series.  I propose adding the ability to exclude data by specifying a custom date range - for example, “Ignore from 12 Jan 2023 to 14 Jun 2023.” It would be much more flexible if we had the ability to specify a custom date range for the forecast input window - for example, selecting “From [date]” and “To [date]” boxes. This would allow users to: Exclude incomplete or anomalous periods anywhere in the dataset, not just at the end. Focus forecasts on stable historical windows (e.g., only 2019 - 2023 data). Run comparative forecasts across different ranges without reshaping or filtering data outside Power BI. This enhancement would make forecasting more accurate and user‑friendly, especially for organizations dealing with partial reporting periods or seasonal anomalies.  I’d love to see this added to Power BI Desktop to give us more control over forecasting scenarios. ...
