Export to PowerPoint (Preview) feedback
Id like to start by Thanking the PowerBI team for finally implementing the export to Power Point Feature. This allows us to finally take PowerBI to new places we couldn't before.
I do have some notes below from using this feature for a while and preparing our Board packages through PowerBI.
1. Regarding the export Error allot of people have encountered. My report was named "TE&A" and it was constantly failing to export. I was getting a similar message to everyone else in the forum. After I changed the name to "TE and A" the report was exporting fine (I deleted the dataset and the report and then re uploaded from a pbix file with the new name). I don`t know why, but that did the trick for me.
2. We are currently trying to implement PowerBI as a method of producing our Board Packages for many of our business entities. Ideally our businesses can filter the reports as required and export to power point for their final decks. We currently can not do that as PowerBI completely ignores the filters/ slicers.
3. Currently when exporting a table only the part that's visible in the visual exports. As a comparison the SSRS services; will export an entire table by separating it into many pages. This would be tremendously helpful as you cant always include everything in one page of the table.
4. Please introduce an option of exporting only individual pages. This would work well with the 15 page limitation.
Thank you very much for the work this team has put forward.
