📊 WHAT IS POWER BI?
Power BI is a business analytics tool by Microsoft. It creates a working environment suited for normal users, meaning tasks such as data extraction, cleansing, analysis and storytelling; these are made easily-accessible to citizen-users, and extendable for technical users. At face value it provides visually-stunning, interactive dashboards, but it’s built on top of so much more.

This video alone got me to subscribe. THANK YOU!

[@bhakthasingh8198]

Excellent Tutorial, Fernan. This is a good idea.

[@prathapkora]

Thanks Fernan for useful video

[@victorariasnaipayan6151]

te amo! gracias.

[@jidanjakosalem3282]

Salamat!!!

[@lonelyboi9394]

Hi, thanks for sharing! Have the following queries 1. What is the file size limit for the csv? I understand there is a limit of 300k rows when exporting 2. How do we prevent users from spamming the button (and hence creating multiple duplicate files) 3. Is it possible for user to change filepath of the download? Or it is a fixed location path Thanks :)

[@sarakhosravi921]

Great thanks Fernan! Fernan, could you please tell me, can I fully automate the report, that means I get the data automatically in a SharePoint and import automatically in PBI, Create report, and put it in the SharePoint automatically. That means create report fully automatically such as SAP(BI).

[@harshchovatiya-gh7hn]

HI..the data limit is only 1000 row. How can I get full data in csv export?

[@victormanuelsandovalarias4630]

Thanks so much!! Excellent tutorial. I’ve just replicate this and works marvelous, but when I published the report it didn’t work anymore. There’s anything that I missed to configure in properties of the data or report before published and make it work? I mean in power desktop works but not when you open the link of the published report in another computer.

[@Maldive177]

Hi, this is amazing, just wonder how to export only the selected parts of my report to PDF. Like i have a report to show clients, but I dont want to show the whole thing to them

[@pumpernickel3322]

Thank you fernan! Question: Can you do a video on the Analyze in Excel option in power bi! This seems like a good option to send go a client that wants to see a csv of the power bi data in addition to the pivot table

[@mohsinshah9512]

This is exactly y i love working on Tableau, tableau is with lots of feature and very easy, creating button to export data in tableau is like piece of cake❤

[@chrisdelapena1123]

H Fernan, thank you for this video! I have one question, is it possible to schedule the export to CSV to be emailed to a recipient in a recurring basis?

[@mardithpascua8112]

Hello, do we have a built-in Export to csv funciton in Power BI Service / Online just like what we have in Power BI Desktop?

[@mingyang7566]

Could you create a session talk about how to formulate specific rows in a table or matrix? the challenges for me is I am trying to apply what-if for only selected rows in a table(not all rows). thanks in advance!

[@Psyresidente]

Hi Fernan, this works only for less than 1000 rows. Could you share for more than 1000 rows plus filtering ?

[@abdulrahmanbaamer8624]

Did you reach out any solution?

[@gowris5847]

In my PowerBI report i have applied dynamic RLS so if the user clicks on export to csv , will he get only his data

[@Vuyiswamb]

Thanks for this video , what if you dont want to save in a shared File and a user just want to download to their desktop , what option do we choose

[@PatrickBateman12420]

haha, I had the same question ...

[@emach4392]

I wish we could have the table in power bi and export button for the same table as well. Can it done?

[@adedayoo1515]

Hi, please can this work in power bi report server version?

[@ushnishd]

may be a silly question but still asking :) so, will any user that clicks the button will find the excel in his one drive ?

[@Tdzzz450]

If I have a column that stores currency values and I want the csv output to have this sorted, how would I do this?

[@rodrigotorres4199]

Hi, thanks for sharing. I have one question: If the user wants to download the file directly in the local downloads, is it possible to make it happen?

[@mahtabsoin7239]

Were you able to figure this out, Rodrigo? If so, please do share. I have a similar challenge.

[@magnumfang]

@@mahtabsoin7239 Same issue. Cannot find anything on the internet about this. Let me know if you find anything.

[@floydm6716]

Hi Fernan.. I am unable to see the "PowerBI data item" shown at 5:13. Is there anything else I need to do? All it shows is userid, username,body, entity and item. Thanks for the video.

[@Harpsea]

you have to do it in the online version, doesnt work on desktop

[@vicenteantoniomagallanesju5289]

Hello, I need your help, I could give you a measurement that returns a complete table, and download the table-type measurement, but in an excel.

[@hamnazahid8191]

When I open my CSV file my columns arrangment is not the same as it was in the visual. Can someone help please?

[@sonalisaha5017]

How do I make the flow run automatically every week
