We’re excited to announce that you can now embed entire Power BI organizational apps in Microsoft Teams tabs. Until now, this has been one of the top feature requests for Power BI integration with Microsoft Teams. It helps teams and organization put the full Power BI org app experiences directly where people work every day. By adding Org apps in channels and meetings, you enable everyone to access the data they need. We’ve started to roll out the experience to commercial cloud customers and expect it to be available for everyone in the next week or two. Let’s look at the new experience and its benefits.

Writeback Commentary in Power BI via Power Apps

-
Upgrade your commenting game by writing comments directly on a Power BI report page Most dashboards lack any kind of qualitative explanation that would enhance the experience for the end-user. This is especially important in executive dashboards where managers want to read some explanations why something has happened, why is some KPI below the plan, and so on. There are a couple of ways how to implement dynamic commentary in Power BI, but only one of them allows users to write the comments directly on a Power BI report page. In this session, we will demonstrate how to build a Power App for dynamic commentary, how to include it into a Power BI report, and roll it out. The Power App will then react to filters and allow users to write back their comments directly in Power BI. We’ll show you how to do it step-by-step: 1. Create a table for the comments 2. Include the table into the Power BI model 3. Build a PowerApp  Registration : writeback-commentary-power-apps-webinar

Dataset refresh cancellation is now available in Power BI Premium

We are excited to share that cancelling an in-progress dataset refresh in Power BI Premium, Power BI Premium Per User, and Power BI Embedded just got significantly easier. A top-20 idea on Power BI Ideas (we do listen and appreciate your feedback), we acknowledge that this capability couldn’t have come soon enough for our customers. In the past, cancelling an ongoing refresh was an unreliable process that required external tools. Earlier this year, we released the Enhanced refresh with Power BI REST API, that – in addition to XMLA based refreshes – allows refresh cancellation. However, it requires the refresh operation to be triggered by the API. Today, users can cancel an ongoing scheduled or on-demand refresh using a contextual button in the Power BI service. Earlier limitations that constrained cancellation no longer apply. To begin using this feature in your Premium workspace, no actions are required. Please note that for datasets created as part of Datamart...
