Can Power BI Data Trigger a Microsoft Form?

Hi - we use Power BI for our data, but wanted to see if there is a way that the data in Power BI could trigger a Form from being sent to our employees?  

 

Example - Days between 2 Events (timestamps) is >X # of Days.  Thus, a Form is needed to be populated to explain why increased timeframe occurred.

 

Thank you!

    Hi Anonymous ,

    I 'm afraid that we cannot achieve your requirement in Power BI Currently.

    As I know, Power BI is a tool for data analytics so it does not thave the tigger fearure.

    You may try Microsoft Flow which should help you.

    Best Regards,

      Thanks!  It may be a cool feature in the future - where the dashboard Power BI data could trigger a Form / Flow from beginning

        Hello - you can do this by configuring a data driven alert in Power BI and when it is triggered, a Power Automate flow for the MS Form is kicked off.
