Hello everyone,

In this video, I will show how to write back data to the data source from Power BI by using the Power Apps Visual.

Video tutorial shows how to add, update & delete data in data source directly from Power BI report by using the Power Apps Visual.

✅ Actionable Insights in Power BI with Power Apps

✅ Pass data from PBI dataset to App

✅ CRUD Operations from App

✅ Refresh Power BI Visuals from App (Import & DirectQuery)

The Power App will connect to the data source and perform the Write Back (CRUD) Operations. We will leverage SharePoint as Data Source and perform the writeback. I will also demonstrate how to leverage Dataverse for Write Back. Dataverse & SQL Support DirectQuery Import mode. This allows the Power App to initiate a near real time refresh of the Power BI Visuals from Power Apps by use the PowerBIIntegration.Refresh() function.

Thanks,

?? Write Back from Power BI using Power Apps

Hello Reza, Thank you for your valuable sessions.
I plan to setup write back, however my data source is a Salesforce report and not an excel file stored on my hard disk!
I also have gone so far to connect a table in my dashboard with the powerapp and it reacts to any change of the table. So far so good.
The problem: I have added 3 empty column in the data model that I would like to use and write back. By creating a form in power Apps, I cannot find any place to connect my power Bi model and choose the fields that I would like to use for write back. It would work, if the data source were i.e. an XLS file. Any idea? Many thanks, Reza
