I am writing to suggest an improvement to the Format Pane functionality in your software. Currently, when users navigate between different panes, the sections within the Format Pane reset to their default expanded/collapsed state. This can disrupt workflow, especially when making repetitive adjustments across different sections.   To enhance user experience and streamline productivity, it would be beneficial to retain the expanded/collapsed state of sections within the Format Pane when navigating between panes. This would allow users to maintain their preferred view settings, making it easier to focus on specific tasks without unnecessary interruptions.   Thank you for considering this suggestion. I believe it will greatly improve the efficiency and satisfaction of users working with your software. ... View more

Temos um scorecard com várias métricas conectadas no Power BI Service. Ao tentar importá-lo no Power BI Embedded, ou inseri-lo dentro de um Relatório para posteriormente visualizar no Power BI Embedded, não conseguimos visualizar. Seria ótimo se a Microsoft resolvesse essa limitação, pois trata-se de uma ferramenta muito poderosa, e que na minha empresa em particular, é o principal relatório, visto que está linkado com centenas de outros relatórios espalhados pelas áreas.   Introdução às metas no Power BI - Power BI | Microsoft Learn ...

Generate a cleaning tool where once you are finishied, or as you progress through your work you can clean the data sources (even collumns or rows) from within the queries that are no being used. This way, you organize the data sources and eliminate the mistake of accidentally breaking current dashboards or relationships when mannualy elmiminating data sets. ... View more

One of the challenges in Power BI is the need to create DAX measures or calculated columns separately before using them in tables or matrix visuals. It would greatly enhance usability if users could add a new column directly within the visual interface and define simple calculations there. For example, if Column A represents Volume and Column B represents Price, it should be possible to add Column C within the table or matrix and define it as A * B, then rename it to "Total Cost" — similar to how calculated fields work in Excel or pivot tables. This would streamline workflows and make basic analysis more accessible, especially for users without deep DAX knowledge.   ... View more

I am trying to add a subtitle to a Button slicer that would advise the user if they have made a selection that needs adjusting (due to compatibility with other selections). This would require the measure, when evaluated inside the slicer, to know about what was selected in the slicer. What happens now is the measure is evaluated as if the slicer has no selection. When the same measure is evaluated outside the slicer in a different visual, it performs as expected including the slicer's selection. Perhaps an option could be added to the fx dialogue to choose between being evaluated with or without the local selection. ... View more

The March release feature that allows the ability to copy the report object name from a visual in Power BI Desktop is a great feature. This helps you start with a visual in Power BI Desktop and find it within the pbir. Often time it can be helpful to go from the pbir and find the visual in Power BI Desktop. To build off the current feature, it would be very helpful to have a search box in the ribbon to paste the object name and be taken to the page and the visual. It could also be useful to be taken to the Selection pane in the case the visual is hidden. In addition, it would be very helpful to be able to see the object name within the UI. The name could just be included in the button that you click to copy it. Currently, in order to check if a visual is the one that you are looking for you have to copy the object name and go and paste it somewhere. Visually just seeing the value would save a lot of time. An example use case would be if you are trying to find all the visuals in which a measure is used. It is super handy to open up the pbip and search within VS Code. At this point you have the visual id and the page, but it can be hard to find the visual on a busy page in the desktop. The search box would make this very quick and easy. Finally, it would also be helpful to see the object name in the visual context menu or sub-menu if scanning visual by visual. ... View more

Publish to web is a good option for embedding Power BI reports on a public website so end-users do not need a license to view the embedded report. But the social sharing icons in the bottom bar are virtually useless since it uses the root-level URL when using those icons, instead of the actual URL of the page the report is embedded in. We have no control of those icons. It would be nice to be able to edit the URL in those icons and also select which ones display in that bottom bar. ... View more

Power BI does not currently support the dynamic generation of .pbix files via code using external data while preserving pre-defined visuals and layout. This feature would allow developers to use a .pbix or .pbit template file as a base and generate customized reports by injecting external data sources, such as CSV or JSON, through JavaScript or API integration. The ability to export full .pbix files on demand, with all visuals and themes already in place, would bring Power BI in line with other Office tools like Excel and Word, which support similar automation through scripting. This would be extremely useful for applications that need to generate personalized reports at scale, automate recurring report generation processes, or integrate BI dashboards into external systems. Providing a supported way to recompile .pbix files dynamically or generate them from structured templates would save time, reduce manual work, and expand Power BI’s usability in modern development environments. ...

In Power BI, within the matrix visual, please consider adding an option to display the total at the beginning (top or left) instead of only at the end (bottom or right). This would provide more flexibility in how summaries are presented, especially in financial and management reports where leading with totals is preferred. ... View more

We suggest the idea that it becomes possible to add column and table descriptions directly to Lakehouse tables in Fabric.    Currently, it is only possible to add column and table descriptions to tables in semantic models in Fabric.   In Microsoft Purview, data quality scans are no longer possible on semantic model tables (SQL endpoint tables), instead only data quality scans on Lakehouse tables are possible. We would like to be able to see the column and table descriptions in these scans, similarly as how these could be seen in Purview for semantic model column descriptions from Fabric. For this the possibility to add the descriptions to the Lakehouse directly in Fabric is needed. ... View more

We want to provide table and column description directly on a lakehouse item and not only on a semantic model or sql endpoint. We need this for Purview integration, because data quality scans can only be performed on the lakehouse item. This way we have the data descriptions and quality scans in one place. This would make purview ideal as you would have a single tool for data quality and governance.   The current solution forces us to add table/column description twice, once in purview and once in fabric which leads to manual errors and no version control. ...

A Service Principal can currently refresh a semantic model with the following POST, requiring Dataset.ReadWrite.All permissions.   Datasets - Refresh Dataset In Group - REST API (Power BI Power BI REST APIs) | Microsoft Learn   I would like a permission for "Refresh", allowing that same API call without the security risks of granting "ReadWrite".   This would make it easier to pull data as it becomes available without making fragile dependencies on schedule timing. e.g. from SQL Agent Jobs, Task Scheduler, cron.   The equivalent Fabric API call does not yet exist, but if it gets added some day the same would apply.

Me gustaría que Power BI Desktop tuviera el mismo tema "Gris oscuro" que existe en las apps de Office (como Word, Excel y Outlook), donde la cinta de opciones, menús y fondo de aplicación son de color gris oscuro, pero el área principal (lienzo de informe) sigue clara.
