Filtering multiple data models from power bi workspaces

Posted on by comacabana

Hi all,

I'm completely new to power apps and before I immerse myself into learning everything about it, I'd like to know if what I want to do is even feasible.

I've got multiple reports in a workspace and I'd like to create one dashboard where I pin certain visuals. Assuming both reports have common tables and field names in the data model, would it be possible to create a drop down for filtering and have the visuals react accordingly?

Thank you

Hello @comacabana ,

This is rather vague for a description, but yes it's possible to filter and get a live result of your records in Power Apps.

"Filter()" sends a network request to the server to call the datasource with your conditions, which will then return a table of records to your app.

So basically, you would want to add "Filter()" in a refresh icon and store the data in a local collection with "ClearCollect()" so you can freely use it across your controls.

Hope this was helpful to you.

Hi Wizey, thank you for your reply. I understand it was a vague question, I wasn't sure how to formulate it as I don't know much about power apps at all. I'm planning on following some trainings but I wanted to make sure it would be worth it. Thanks again!
