I have not found one but have the same need.

 

To get around the issue, I develop my transform in BI. Next, I copy and paste the data from the BI table grid into a text file. I then continue my transform in Excel off of this file. 

 

The process is kludgy, inefficient and probably limited by the amount of memory, but at least I am able to get my pdf data into excel.

 

I'm using same workaround - but this isn't good enough and need manual intercelt

 

Let have same need (feature request)

 

On (bad) side on PowerBI is that all development worce is concentrated to PowerBi and left from Excel (original home for PowerQuery, PowerPivot and PowerView) - so Excel is more or less as Cinderella now in analytics. Same things goes to Excel now with big delay, lessfunctional or never 

 

Hi @HennSarv ,

 

You can come up a new idea and add your comments there to make this feature coming sooner.
