Archive Data Set from Dashboard

What is the current preferred method to archive a data set? In reality I only need a very basic report from the dataset in a dashboard (that I own).

 

I'm using Power BI Premium, and everyone in my firm has a Power BI Pro license. I'm totally comfortable in Power Automate, so a solution using that tool is fine. My backend is Azure SQL Server. Technically I could just create a stored proc to move everything to a table, however I would need to re-create alot of measures/ calculations in the dashboard - so thats not my prefered method.

@GilbertQ 

Essentially the ask is that they want the exact power bi matrix visual dowloaded weekly into a csv for them to be able to reference as needed. If I can get the data extracted somehow automatically, then I can do the rest... Basically, the team doesn't want to have to download the data every week.

Hi @GTPowerBIUser 

 

When you say archive do you mean to get a copy of the data in Power BI?
