Powerbi Service Export Issue--Export Excel
minhuan Workaround: Preserve Display Formatting in Export
To ensure that Excel shows "<10" instead of the actual number, you can modify your measure to return text instead of numeric values:
_x = SWITCH( TRUE(), ISBLANK([measure]), BLANK(), [measure] < 10, "<10", FORMAT([measure], "General") )
This forces Power BI to treat the output as text, which will be preserved during export. However, note that this may limit sorting or aggregation in visuals.
Thanks a lot, When I use export current layout， it still doesn't work.
I can't disable all export, so I think I need to use admin portal to control export type. I think this is a feature bug.
Hi minhuan ,
This isn’t a bug, even with Export current layout, Power BI exports the underlying model values before formatting. That’s why <10> is replaced by the original number.
If you want <10> to show up in the export, make the measure return text in DAX, such as:
_x =
SWITCH(
TRUE(),
ISBLANK([measure]), BLANK(),
[measure] < 10, "<10",
FORMAT([measure], "0")
)
This makes the value text so the export matches the visual. If you need numeric sorting, create a second numeric column or measure and use Sort By Column.
To restrict export types, go to Admin Portal - Tenant settings - Export and sharing settings and limit formats (like CSV) for certain security groups.
