Power BI to Word

Hello,

I currently have a Power BI model that manages the consultants of my companies (identity, mission, training) and I would like to know:

- is it possible to generate CVs in word format from my model?

- If using other Microsoft tools, it is possible to use the PowerBI model and build word documents?

Thank you.

Need Help

    Hi Seidatou ,

     

    >>- is it possible to generate CVs in word format from my model?

    >>- If using other Microsoft tools, it is possible to use the PowerBI model and build word documents?

     

     

    Would you like to get CSV file instead of "CVs" file? If yes, you can use "Export data" option to achieve your demand. If you have no "Export data" option , you may need to enable this option in admin portal-> tenant settings.

      The export of the report in pdf does not seem to me to be the right solution because in the case where I have a long visual that must be traversed with the cursor (see image), the pdf format shows me only what is display only (from the first line up to the Nortwind traders data center project), and not all the values ​​that the visual displays up to the last (Stock validation software refresh).
