Power BI Accessibility
I have been reading the Power BI Documentation on Accessibility and reading some other reports on this and for example, this is just one negative comment on Accessability
"Power BI web interface is extraordinarily difficult for screen reader users due to inconsistent navigation requirements and unpredictable focus changes"
I have seen other people recommend not using Power BI when you have users with visual impairments and need to use a screen reader from around June 2020 and we have now been tasked to look into this.
Does any one have any thoughts or recommendations about this. I really don't want our Accessibility team to say that Power BI isnt a good option?
Hi DebbieE
I would suggest looking at Meagan Longoria (@MMarie) / Twitter she does a lot of great work and blog posts with regards to accessibility
Hi DebbieE,
apparently I only wrote this reply but didn't send it yet.. I think GilbertQ is spot on:
While I don't have much experience with creating accessible reports, I know Meagan Longoria is a champion on this topic and she has a great checklist: https://datasavvy.me/2018/06/06/power-bi-report-accessibility-checklist/
