Connecting to Excel workbooks in OneDrive is a great first step, but connectivity to Google Sheets should be there too.

Thanks for the suggestions! I've split out the other cloud storage options into separate ideas for people to vote on.

RE: Connectivity to Google sheets

We are a university college with over 60 websites / GA properties. We have on workspace with a dashboard for each organization with the contents shared to the unit head via Power BI Pro and all reports pulled together into a central dashboard for college executives. Now we can't rename "apps", we can't pin measures to the central dashboard, and we have to have a separate workspace for every college unit/website. This was not an improvement for us.

This request is nearly 4 years old, and is still "Under Review"?

Really, guys? Just come out and say you're never going to support it if that's the case.

However, if you intend on actually delivering on this one day, it'd be great to know what's taking so long.

Please work on this connector! Currently, there is no stable solution to connect to organizational google sheets.

RE: Connectivity to Google sheets

Google Analytics can be added to Power BI as an "App" from AppSource. This works well, however, one issue I've encountered (having multiple GA properties) is that I've ended up with 3 "Apps" (no way to merge them), all called "Google Analytics" - It's often difficult to know which one relates to which website and it's even worse if using email reports as they report simply comes out with the subject "Subscription for Google Analytics" - this often means having to look at the URL's in the report to work out what it is for.

Can I suggest adding an ability to rename Google Analytics Apps to create distinctions between them
