3 TopicsConsume Excel file stored in M-File from PowerBI
Hello, Is there anyone who has configured PowerBI or a Dataflow in a way to consume an Excel file directly from an M-File Vault? By using the "Get Data" from PowerBI, I'm able to find the file from the M-File desktop version I'm using but then, a local copy of it is getting created in my SharePoint personal folder. Unfortunately in this way, the file used by PowerBI is not any more connected with the real source. I've found on the network the suggestion to work in the opposite way around. Something like: - Store the Excel working file in SharePoint - Link PowerBI to SharePoint (very easy) - Copy the file to M-File when approval is needed ... but I need to secure that my PowerBi is using only the latest approved data from the source. Is there any official best practice on this matter that I can use? Thanks!!!1.1KViews0likes2CommentsAutomate Dataflow export to .json through Power Automate or Azure Logic Apps
I have been doing some internet searches and just have not seen anything around this, but is it possible to use Power Automate (or Azure Logic Apps which I am more familiar with) to create a job to automate the export of Dataflows to .json? I know how use the Azure Logic App Power BI connector to do many of the tasks through there but have not found a way to export Dataflows to .json. I have found a power shell function [Export-PowerBIDataflow] to do it, but that's local to my computer. I like to have a schedule job that exports them so I it's more scheduled and automated for back purposes. Thanks.Solved11KViews0likes11CommentsCreating Power BI Dataflows in Power BI Report Server
