    Hey Ben, thanks for the tutorial and downloadable files, really great tutorial and clear instructions - I am currently testing the 'sequential' version of your flow, but it is currently up to 16hrs+. Does this pull all the data from planner/teams as whole and then run smaller scheduled flows to top up the excel spreadsheet tables (so to speak?), or will this run everyday and pull everything (again, another potential 16hrs+)?

To import the zip file you need to add the query parameter "v3=false" to the end of the URL when you import the file.

      thanks for the question. This is a video which shows how to automate the Power BI refresh from an Excel file stored in Teams/SharePoint.

      ​@@BenHoward_PowerBI , thank you for your quick response, I was able to find a person with access to Power Bi desktop, so we did necessary implementations. But now I have a further question, how do you construct "Task URL" column in your data model? I did not find it to be exported during the flow

      @@MaksimBlekhshtein - the task URL is included in the .pbit that you can download from GitHub, but for ref the URL is constructed in Power Query. Here is the PQ code that does it. // Add in the task URL #"Added Custom" = Table.AddColumn(#"Changed Type", "Task URL", each "tasks.office.com/"&Lines.ToText(Tenant)&".onmicrosoft.com/en-us/Home/Task/"&[Task ID]), #"Changed Type1" = Table.TransformColumnTypes(#"Added Custom",{{"Task URL", type text}}), #"Cleaned Text" = Table.TransformColumns(#"Changed Type1",{{"Task URL", Text.Clean, type text}})

    Thank you! Great vid, very helpful! BUT, those limitations are total show stoppers. I'm looking forward to when fabric matures, but it sure doesn't seem ready for prime time yet. And it seems that the "guard rails" are likely to be serious limitations. You mention row limitations, but what about width? Also, I hope there is a plan to develop a path for translating PBIs in desktop to use this. If I have to rebuild all of my models from scratch, that is another block. What I don't understand is where all of the data modeling that I currently do in azure sql would happen in this new world? I hope this evolves to be usable - conceptually it's great. But for now, it doesn't appear to be a viable option for real world use - yet!

      I think the idea is that you do your data modeling in Power Bi as a semantic model for Fabric.

    I am attempting to import the package into Power Automate and, after changing the import setup to "Create as new", I am not able to see or assign connection for each resource type. Do you have thoughts on the cause?

    • @BenHoward_PowerBI
      @BenHoward_PowerBI 9 місяців тому

      Hi, you need to set up connections for each resource type, you can do this from the connections tab in Power Automate, click on New Connection, and then it's best to use the search box in the top right (eg Excel) and then create your connection. Hitting refresh then back in the Power Automate import wizard on the connection will show you the new connection for the relevant connection type.

    Thank you for this! However, what happens if you use python to generate csv files each month which contains new records. Is it still possible to update Power BI dashboards with the latest csv file?
