PlannedCopy/paste the data behind the visual in Power BI to other applications

I can copy the visual either as image or data table and paste it in other applications.

March 2022 Update: We are looking into this
We recently released the ability to export data from tiles and visuals to a CSV file. This may work for y'all as a workaround until we add the ability to directly copy and paste the visual or data. You can read more about it here: http://blogs.msdn.com/b/powerbi/archive/2016/01/06/power-bi-service-update-0106.aspx#exportTile. Be sure to let us know what you think about the feature!

What is the status on this one? The workaround is not helpful at all. To much work for something as simple Copy-paste.

What is the status of the simple copy/paste for a grid/matrix?

Please Please Please

Again, a very basic feature missing from PBI. The workaround with .csv files is an annoying workaround. Far too frequently I just need to copy and paste a table in to an email, word document or existing excel file.

I also need to copy and paste the value of a card visualization. Would it be possible to let us know from when is this expected to be available?

Please make it possible to copy and paste the value of a card visualization. It is so important! :)

A simple copy and paste from at least the table visualization should be prioritized; it is jarring for a user to not be able to do so.

At our company we really need this feature! It is super important for our employess to be able to quickly copy/paste the data of a visualization.
ETA?! :)

Yes, the table visuals specifically - would be extremely easy to get the data out by copy/paste vs exporting to csv. Often there is only one field needed.
RE: Copy/paste the data behind the visual in Power BI to other applications
I use Q&A all the time for simple data search (e.g. phone number or ID of a certain user) and not being able to quickly copy the results is really frustrating. I don't want to be exporting the whole visual to CSV, when I only need to copy a value from one cell.
This is a big drawback that can act as a deal-breaker for many users/companies.
