Hi Anonymous,

 

There could be another way to maintain 5 years or more data of exchange. But that won't be the duty of Power BI. 

1. Can you extend the capability of the Exchange?

2. Can you archive the old mails?

3. Incremental refresh could be a good idea. But the records that don't exist in the data source should be considered as invalid data. 

 

 

Best Regards,

Dale

Hi Dale v-jiascu-msft

 

Thank you for looking into this problem.

 

At this point, I have a very broad set of requirements.

I will be looking into Global mailbox and it would be safe to assume that archival is not possible.

 

However I would like to know how it can help if archival is enabled.

 

By extending the capability of exchange, if you meant "increasing the duration of data stored on MS Exchange"  the answer is - "No"  it is not feasible.

 

Is there a way I can implement incremental refresh or is it planned for upcoming update?

I suppose this feature is not yet supported on Power BI

 

Thanks,

Mannu
