Power BI Ideas

The new power BI embedded available in Azure looks great. Currently it looks like you can just embed reports. I would like to embed dashboards and individual charts as well.

As of June 2017, The Power BI service and Power BI Embedded came together to offer a single API for embedding your dashboards and reports. This means you now have one API surface, a consistent set of capabilities and access to the latest Power BI features – such as dashboards, gateways and app workspaces – when embedding your content. You can read more about it here- https://powerbi.microsoft.com/en-us/documentation/powerbi-developer-embedding/ For those who work with the Power BI Embedded Workspace Collection solution, we built a migration tool for easier data transition.

On a line chart it would be very useful to be able to have the data label display for the last point on each line.

We made some changes to the labelling algorithm so it always shows the first, last, highest and lowest points by default.

Currently filtering on R visuals is supported in PowerBI desktop but not in PowerBI service. Allow full support for R visuals in PBI service as well including filtering.

When in focus, all objects have a border that does not allow them to be top-aligned with a page's border. This is especially unfortunate for images.

With the new 'visual header' you can position items right to the top of a page. For existing reports you may need to turn this on explicitly - go to File -> Options -> Current File/Report Settings and choose to use the 'Modern visual header'.

On Embedded Power BI support Enterprise Gateway connection and also support Oracle/HANA and other on-prem databases. This is must for faster customer adoption.

The ability to connect to a Power BI dataset inside of Power BI Report Builder exists today, to learn more: https://docs.microsoft.com/en-us/power-bi/paginated-reports/report-builder-shared-datasets

In some charts that contain multiple lines, some lines are more important than others. I think it would be good to make these important lines stand out more by being able to make them slightly thicker than the other lines. Currently you can just make the other less important lines a neutral...

With this update of the Power BI Desktop, you can now control line thickness and join types: https://powerbi.microsoft.com/en-us/blog/power-bi-desktop-february-feature-summary/#lineThickness If you want more control over line styles, please open a new idea with your specific request so we can prioritize them appropriately.

Currently the schedule refresh option only updates the specified dataset but there should be an option to also update associated reports automatically

There is not much to go on in this idea

The timeline slicer (Custom Visualization) functions, but it is not a friendly tool. If I quickly want to select a "Start" and "End" date for a date range, it would be more helpful to have a popup calendar with an optional freeform text box for both the "Start" and "End" date ranges.

At the Data Summit a few things were show that were available and other as "coming soon." Someone showed the ability to create graphs/charts in Excel and easily export them as Power BI tiles for use in reports and dashboards. Does anyone know if this is now available, what version or Excel/Power ...
