I have volumes of information to share with my teams that is best presented in tables and matrices. It would be a huge improvement if they were able to export the data from the visualizations and have the formatting in Excel match the formatting created within PowerBI.

This would be especially helpful for ongoing forecasting activities.

It's a shame on Microsoft that not able or not like to realize a basic feature after 4 years of complaints of their customers.

I agree, This is a basic feature expectation from Microsoft. Otherwise, we have to think about other products

Amazed that this basic functionality is not even a backlog item. This is a basic feature expectation from Microsoft.

2020 and this is still not included? This shouldn't still be in the backlog if MS wants PBI to compete with other similar tools.

Many customers have requested. It is an important issue now, so I want it to be realized as soon as possible.

This is solved - we've built and launched a Chrome extension called BI Helper Matrix for table and matrix data exports from Power BI. See my post dated Feb 24, 2020.

Go to https://bihelper.tech/bihelper_matrix.html to download and test the solution.

What is the holdup? This is an incredibly common use case. I'm tired of having to explain that Microsoft doesn't think that exporting data is important. #TableauCanDoIt
