How can I add a calculated column in PowerBI online to an excel imported from Sharepoint

Hi

I have a PowerBI online report which uses as data an excel file which is loaded from Sharepoint.

I would like to add a calculated column to one of the tables from the excel file.

However, I want to add this calculated column in PowerBI online, not in the excel file.

Is this possible? If yes, can you please provide instruction how to do (or a link to a tutorial).

thank you

Hi @Shrudulu ,

 

There is a preview function where you can enable editing the data model in the workspace setting:

You can refer to:Edit data models in the Power BI service (preview) - Power BI | Microsoft Learn

 

Hope it helps!

Hi @Shrudulu ,

Create Datamart/Dataflow and Connect with Sharepoint and build reports with that Datamart or Dataflow.
