I'm trying to make a PowerBI dashboard for my organization's internal data validation. We have a PowerBI report with a table in a matrix form. Each row in this table has different numbers but multiple levels of hierarchy. What I want to achieve is that on clicking a row in this table- there are options for Valid,Invalid and a textbox to add comments if necessary. The values that were clicked-wither Valid or Invalid and the comments in the textbox, need to be written back to SQL Server -which is the data source. Now, the PowerBI part is ready. And I used PowerApps for the write back, but my senior manager wants us to bypass the PowerApps part since the edit form is taking a lot of time to load, and use PowerAutomate instead. I've never used PowerAutomate earlier so can anyone suggest me links/resources for this use case? Even ways to make PowerApps load the form faster would be great. Thanks!
Your best bet is to make the PowerApp faster. While you can theoretically use PowerAutomate for the write back there is absolutely no feedback that the action was successful. With PowerApp and a DirectQuery connection to the SQL Server you can at least get a semblance of a real time feedback (in the sub-10 second range)
NOTE: Both these options are hampered by the fact that ALL your users need PowerApps or Power Automate Premium licenses.
