Posted on by 5

Hi.. I'm trying to build at PowerApp to edit a table inside PowerBi..

To do so, I need to connect the data source to PowerApps not just PowerBi. This so I can write data back.

 

I have a gallary page whit the readonly data from PowerBi on landing.

And to a edit page to write the data to the data source itself.

To get the actual datapoint the user whants to edit, i put in this formula in Item on the edit form

And here is where I get the error.. "Error when trying to retrieve data from the network"

 

If I edit the formula, and set the ID colum in the tabel it search. I get the right retur of the ID.. But the rest of the field dont have any data then..

    Try LookUp(tblUtstyrsoversikt; ID=Gallery1.Selected.ID)

    That is the formula I use, sorry i see the picture is "ID" in. That was my second try to force PowerApps to read it as tekst.. But still. Same error.. 😕

    Your gallery shows an error. What was it?  You will need to fix that first. Also in the ">" icon make sure there is an EditForm(Form1) function in it.

    Hi @Knut_Petter_D 

    What worked for me is :

    To build reports I usually use Power BI DESKTOP.
    And in desktop version I am getting blank data in Power Apps (using PowerBIIntegration.Data).

    Solution:
    I have Published my desktop version to Power BI SERVICES (powerbi.com).

    And from my workspace I have went to Report and started Editing report and Power Apps visual.

    Connection is working perfectly here.

     

    Hope it helps!
