Dataflow into Excel PowerQuery

Hi All

 

Has anyone managed a workaround to this that actually works or know when this will be implemented by MS?

 

I have seen a few people saying you can do this via excel online using Blank query and =PowerPlatform.Dataflows(null) - I have tried this and just get an error.

 

Any workarounds or knowledge on when this will be available would be greatly appreciated.

 

thanks guys 🙂

Hi  @Anonymous , 

I doubt it is possible to do so. PowerBI.Dataflows(null) is only supported in these products:

Power BI (Datasets)
Power BI (Dataflows)
Power Apps (Dataflows)
Dynamics 365 Customer Insights (Dataflows)

 

 

Power Query Dataflow connector - Power Query | Microsoft Docs

 

However, you can try create a dataset in power bi online by connect the dataflow via Power BI Desktop. And then connect the dataset in power bi service by excel online.
