PowerApps access in Mobile PowerBI (QR code scanner)
Hey Cinkov ,
1) Build a report URL that has query params that will used to filter the report (explained here: https://learn.microsoft.com/en-us/power-bi/collaborate-share/service-url-filters)
2) Generate a QR code from this URL using any QR code generator.
3) Scan that QR code from Power BI Mobile app. The app will open the report and filter its data based on the query params you set.
Good luck,
Maya
Hey lbendlin ,
Can you explain your scenario with more details please?
Are you looking to filter a report using QR code, with query params? we added support to filter report using query params in the QR code recently...
thanks, Maya
mshenhav Maya, yes, that's what I am looking for. How can a user choice in the PowerApps visual impact the Power BI data model? Very curious!
Not sure about PowerApp, but if you have a QR generated from a Power BI report URL, that has query param (this QR can be generated by any QR generator that accepts valid URL) then scanning that QR from Power BI mobile app will load the report and will filter the data using the query params.

Don't want to hijack this thread, but I don't really care about the mobile app. I am curious how to implement this on the desktop and in the service.
Could you explain it in more details?
I am not sure how to add this Query param to my project.
