View Excel Reports
Thanks for the quick response Jen!
It looks like all this does it create a link on the PowerBI site to a file in my OneDrive. I don't like this for a few reasons.
1) The file is in OneDrive.... onedrive goes away when the user leaves. Can I suggest that it links over to the "PowerBI for Office365" area
2) I can't auto update the data model to a file in onedrive.
Is there a future plan to enhance this?
You are right... All that this article explains is how to surface data from Excel into Power BI.
I know what you're saying about publishing Excel reports in Power BI (as in with Excel Services). I know this is possible because I saw a Power BI developer showing this to me in a live demo at Microsoft! So I know it is posdible, but they changed the interface so much that I cannot tell now how they did it (or if they just dropped support for it...) :(
