It would be very useful if Power BI allow to export charts directly to excel without lose the format. Exporting just like values with format.

RE: Export charts directly to excel

It would be highly beneficial to enable exporting to Excel in the same format as the entire page, mirroring Power BI, including filters and color formatting. I've received this feature request from numerous business users, and implementing this would greatly enhance their experience. Kindly consider making this feature available.

Exporting data with color formatting is available even in paginated reports of SQL Server Reporting Services. This feature should also be available in Power BI. Please bring it to Power BI. Thank you.

Would really appreciate the colour formatting on tables being taken into excel when exporting. I am receiving lots of complaints from our end users having to re-apply the colours in excel. Please make this possible.

Business closed because of lack of "Export to Excel" Option that has all formatting.

RE: Export charts directly to excel

Adding support for the need to format tables with formatting intact, the fact that the tables lose their formatting when exported is surprising and that there isn't at toggle to preserve the displayed formatting is problematic.

RE: Export charts directly to excel

So much meaning is stored in the cell background colours. Not having them in the export to excel means that we have to reformat the export using excel's conditional formatting. Frustrating.

RE: Export charts directly to excel

I am currently having to apply a manual workaround to re-apply conditional formatting that is lost when exporting to Excel from a Matrix. This is causing a lot of problems for our users who rely on the colour coding for effective analysis. I would greatly appreciate if there was an option to be able to export to Excel and retain all formatting including conditional formatting, as is the case with similar applications. Thanks.

RE: Export charts directly to excel

You can do this with Power BI Robots. It's something I only learned recently, so might get some details wrong. But when adding visuals, I kept going past the page image to the table image, and was able to export the data to excel in that exact format. I think there was a setting on the General tab that I had to select for that to work, in the Output Format field.
