Editing information directly into Power BI Service
Is it possible to edit information on Power BI service live? I am currently using slicers to allow the field to drill into the data. They are asking if its possible to enter information directly...
- Hi there
You are correct, that you cannot enter data directly in the Power BI Service.
With that being said, you could create a Power App, which you could embed into your Power BI Report, which would then allow them to write back to the source data. And after a refresh it would then appear in the Power BI Report.
we do not want the team changing the source data, more like give a preview of "what would happen if" kind of thing. Them not changing the sourtce data is important since the source data is generated from formulas and I'm sure I don't need to explain why we dont want people inputting hard numbers over formulas.
