Export to PowerPoint

[sblakeb]

When exporting to PowerPoint the deck it exports is the default values for the report. For example my dataset contains all B2B business, and I have a slicer that filters out all other employers/businesses except the one currently selected. I want to export a .pptx based on the way I've sliced the report.

Use case: 

I want to enable our sales team to be able to create a presentation deck based on current data refreshed to PowerBI daily. They log into power bi filter the report based on the business they will be visiting and hit the export button to have a .pptx slide deck in hand ready for that business presentation. Currently what happens when they export is that it gives them whatever the default values were/when the report was saved. 

Ideal Solution:

When you hit the export to PowerPoint button it should recognize that the user has changed the default slicers for the report and prompt: It appears you have changed the filters/slicers from the default values, would you like to export based on your changes or using default values? ("Export with my changes"," Export using default values")

Hi @sblakeb,

For your requirement, you can vote or comment on this idea: Export to PowerPoint with filters applied.

hi @Vicky_Song

has this been delivered? Tried exporting to PowerPoint this morning with filters but the exported file ignored the filters.

Hi @danextian,

This is a feature request. Currently exported PowerPoint will show visuals same as saved reports.  See: https://docs.microsoft.com/en-us/power-bi/service-publish-to-powerpoint#limitations

• In-session interactivity such as highlighting and filtering, drill-down, and so on, are not yet supported when exporting to PowerPoint. The exported PowerPoint shows the original visuals as they were saved in the report.
