Copy Data to Clipboard should be a simple right-click context menu capability --- as it has been in Tableau for years. Often, user wants data being displayed without going through export to CSV and import into Excel. Just simple copy-paste of data out of visual to clipboard to ... whatever intended ... is extremely useful.

The copy value option exists today for table and matrix visuals.

Crazy that this isn't in there yet.

Echoing others comments in the thread. Lack of this feature is one of the main reasons preventing greater usage in our organization. Would be a huge win if this can get added soon.

RE: copy data to clipboard

In powerbi tables, it is extremely important to allow users to copy data to clipboard.
