We love hearing feedback from the Power BI community. This helps us to understand what we’re doing well, and what we can change to make your experience even better. Once a quarter, we conduct a survey to get insight into your level of satisfaction with Power BI and to gather feedback on how to improve the Desktop experience. This is a great opportunity to provide feedback directly to the product team. In addition, if you take the survey by 5 p.m. PST on June 30th, you will be entered for a chance to win a $50 AMEX giftcard.
» Erfahren Sie mehr Today, I am excited to announce the general availability of new APIs for managing data refresh in the Power BI service. These new APIs will allow you to programmatically trigger data refreshes and retrieve refresh history for any dataset that you own. With these versatile new tools, you’ll be able to easily automate and scale out Power BI data refresh management – no more clicking through dataset settings or flipping through refresh histories. In addition, these APIs open the door to integrating data refresh into your existing ETL or deployment processes. You could, for example, trigger Power BI data refresh as the last step in your Azure Data Factory ETL pipeline. And, as an ISV, you can easily manage the data for all your embedded analytics solutions.

Developers can already create R custom visuals that plugs into Power BI reports, to enable report authors to use those custom visuals without known R. This is a powerful capability to extend the visualizations of Power BI. We are proud to announce that R custom visuals can now also be interactive, by generating HTML as the visual (instead of the static image that was supported until now), R custom visuals are capable of supporting tooltips and selections.
