Query Fields <> Report Fields
I choose a subset of columns in the Query area, but all columns show in the Report area; I am expecting them to be same as in PowerPivot.
I am so impressed with what you are doing with this - you are going to set the competition on their heels.

Energy Information Administration
Get data from the new EIA REST/JSON service on EIA.gov.
7 votesWould just exposing features to connect to any generic JSON source be sufficient, Eric? Is there anything special about the EIA service that would benefit from more modelling etc? If there are other Power BI users who access this data, please add your vote to help us prioritize!

Hi Keith, not exactly sure what you’d like to see here – do you want to embed adverts in your dashboard or pull data about adverts into Power BI?

Allow me to change the data source used in a Q&A result
When I have multiple data sources, typing a question doesn't always bring back the right data. I need to be able to change which workbook/connection Q&A uses to show me results.

Need to be able to send a URL to a Q&A result like we do today. This is super critical to make it scalable!
Currently we use Q&A for all reporting and analytics purpose and the way we do it is to generate a required view through Q&A and send people the link, who can just keep the link which will always provide updated data whenever underlying Q&A workbook refrehes (daily).

Hi Pradeep. Can you please elaborate on this suggestion? What do you mean be a multiple series chart? You can add many series to a chart already – drop a field into the ‘Legend’ box to create a series. You can use the ‘Combo chart’ chart type to show series with very different values too.
Can you please create another suggestion for ‘Dynamic Expression’ and add some detail there too? That way we can track the importance of both of these ideas!
Thank you!

Add the date range or criteria to the tile and filter based on date dynamically
The tiles should display the time period of the data within... and either being able to change the timeframe on a tile or on the entire dashboard.
This is a big concern for me in Salesforce Reporting. I want to be able to perhaps look at activity on one page that might show 90 days, 180, and 365 for example.72 votes -

Direct connection to web service without Excel spreadsheet?
Direct connection from dashboard to web service?
Is there a way, in HTML5 and JS, to create a connection to a WebService and create a chart? Especially if I do not have a spreadsheet.
28 votesAs of today you’ve got to create the connection through Excel first, Evan. This is a great suggestion though, we’ll certainly consider it! Thanks!
