Accessing multiple datasets in single report
I uploaded several datasets already available to me, and now i want to create a single report using them. Can there be a way to refer to multiple datasets in a single report?

This is a must heave feature for enterprise level reporting & dash boarding. It seems weird that this is not one available already.

The datasets contain tremendous intellectual property value. To effectively constrain them to a single instance is very limiting. We create standard KPI's that should be able to be reused in connection with other related datasets. I hope this feature can become a priority.

This feature is indeed required in order to utilize Power BI's potential!

Can someone please merge a number of ideas with this one. There are multiple entries with this idea resulting in the votes getting diluted.

This is one of the most important features that are missing. Yeah, you can add fancy stuff like 'ask a question' and all that can help the experience here or there, but this will be a make or break feature. It's very useful for when you don't know in advance what exactly you will be needing from your data.
Will start looking into alternatives if there is no solution to this.

Total must have. This could be the reason customers turn to other products or tools.

This feature would add tremendous flexibility in our scenario. MUST HAVE!

This is a must! This will take auto-refresh to a whole new level and allow PowerBI to compete so much more effectively over Tableau and Qlik - which both can do this.

Extreamly required

Seems crazy not to be able to do this. If you have a lot of historical data you can query it into a dataset, and not have to refresh it all the time... it can just be there. Then you would only have to query going forward...

Really need this as the speedy proliferation of data sets starts to get very untidy, very quickly.
Even the option to use a Power BI service source to drive an existing report by manually changing the fields. Laborious but at least reports can share data sources.
It's not as if they are similar sources - they are the same -

This is a feature that we really need as well in order to utilize Power BI's potential.

From OMS we can configure to push data to Power BI, but it is creating separate dataset for each OMS rule/queries. If we need to create single report from multiple dataset then it is not possible.
We need to have filters at report level from multiple dataset. Dashboard also not solving this usecase. OMS is not having enough option to view the data or enlarge the graphs.

We required this functionality

This and the other two ideas with the same name need to be merged.
