    Hi canost ,

    Thank you for reaching out to the Microsoft Fabric Community.

     

    In Power BI Report Server, you can use the "Export Data" option from the visual's menu (three dots "...") to export the table into Excel, but it will be in a raw format without exact styling. Unfortunately, selecting and copying multiple cells like in Excel isn't supported directly, and for better formatted exports, you may need to rebuild the format manually or request a paginated report.

     

    If this feature is important, you can suggest it on the Microsoft Ideas Forum, where user feedback is often considered for future updates.
