Using PowerApps Visual in Power BI (Integration)

[@DanielChristian19]

Well done, Reza! I like how you've used CDS entity to demonstrate the deep-integration between Power Apps and Power BI. I'm also glad you pointed out that SharePoint isn't a Direct Query data source, however, you can use Power Automate flow to refresh the Power BI report.

[@RezaDorrani]

Thank you Dan. Great point!

Reza, you're the best! Excellent demo! I think this integration is really awesome and it's a game-changer. Using Power BI as the main tool along with Power Apps integration only to perform CRUD, our apps are going to be much more analytical focused because Power BI is really powerful to perform complex calculations and build awesome data-driven visualizations....

Yes you can by changing the form mode depending upon the button selection. I have a video planned on form control that will explain all the basics.

Best tutorial as always! Just had one question : If I choose an existing app instead of creating a new one, will this existing app not interact with my Power BI filters and slicers? If no, how can I make it so that it interacts with the filters and slicers? Because I am having a pre built app which I just need to replicate for another Power BI report, and I don't want to create a new app from scratch. I just want to choose the existing pre built app and make sure it interacts with the Power BI slicers and filters.

[@SuperBigben8]

I think you are not right when you say that the number of refresh will be limited at 33:50. The limit is only applied to schedule refresh (Pro = 8 refreshes per day for example) but not to On-demand refresh. I can read that on the microsoft website : "It is also important to call out that the shared-capacity limitation for daily refreshes applies to both scheduled refreshes and API refreshes combined. You can also trigger an on-demand refresh by selecting Refresh now in the dataset menu, as the following screenshot depicts. On-demand refreshes are not included in the refresh limitation."

[@RezaDorrani]

That's correct. I was referring to the fact that SharePoint does not support direct query so refreshing the visuals using PowerBIIntegration.Refresh() from Power Apps will not work in case of SharePoint and one will be limited to x number of refreshes per day . One would have to schedule the refreshes or use flow to do so.

[@avinoamrothenberg1244]

Raza, you're the MAN 😎 So, it seems that for heavy duty PowerBI querying the real answer is CDS (or SQL server, which I believe in the long run will have less and less use of). My query is, what type of PA license do I need to achieve this PowerBI-CDS-PA integration? will a Microsoft 365 be enough? or do I need one of the standalone plans (per user/per app)?

[@RezaDorrani]

CDS requires Power Apps premium licensing ( so does SQL ). Every user accessing the Power App would need the premium license. Also, for the PBI PA CDS combination, the user would also need a Power bi license

I do not have any other supporting video or blog. SharePoint does not support direct query. Hence we can use flow to refresh the dataset however we are limited to how many refreshes we can make based on licensing. Video description has all the supporting links.

Can I use power bi Embed with a Power Apps visualization ?

[@RezaDorrani]

I believe so. However, Power Apps would require user to sign in & a license.

How do i connect to a table that was created in power apps? I don't see it as an option in the list of data sources.

[@RezaDorrani]

A table in power apps would be created in dataverse. You need to ensure its in same environment as the app.

Using powerbiintegration.refresh() function my visual is taking so long time to load the data .....does anyone has answer of this?

[@RezaDorrani]

The timing depends on a lot of factors Amount of data, number of visuals, license etc. I will recommend checking on the forums at powerusers.microsoft.com/ in case someone has run into something similar.

As usual amazing video legend!!! A question... How to navigate to another page when an item is selected on a list in Power BI? for instance... I select an item on a list on Page 1 and navigate to Page 2 which includes a PowerApps edit form... I think that would be a good one legend

[@RezaDorrani]

Thanks for liking the video. I am not sure how would one do that. I would have to try it out to learn if there is a function which does that. I will recommend you check on the forums at powerusers.microsoft.com/

Sir the power bi integration has limits it can shows up the data till 1k rows. Is there any workaround for this, my data has more than 2 lakh rows in power bi i want to fetch the data in power apps with power hi integration

[@RezaDorrani]

It will only transfer over 1k. That is a limit. Ideally, user should filter the data in power bi and then work with the results of the limited data set in power apps.

How to remove the "PowerBIIntegration" from the PowerApp located at the Screen Tree View? (PowerApps)

[@RezaDorrani]

Why would you want to remove that? Entire concept is based on that object.

Same here. I didn't manage to open Power Apps from within Power BI. Has it got sorted?

[@RezaDorrani]

@@daniel92man I dont think anything has changed. Make sure you are adding power apps from the power bi service and not desktop. Check kzbin.info/www/bejne/a6qVm32vfZl4q5I

@@RezaDorrani Create the mobile version of the power bi report, but I can't place it inside my mobile app. I can only link the report and open it from the external power bi application.

[@RezaDorrani]

@@jreyesvega I believe that is a limitation. I am not a Power BI expert so I may not be the best person to answer this. Try posting your query on the Power BI forum - community.powerbi.com/

Love you, sir. This is exactly what I have been looking for. I want to make a PowerApp containing game heroes/characters and then on click of a hero I want to filter out report data of that particular hero stats or abilities. I could do this within Power BI only but I am not sure if I can use images as filtering options on Power BI

[@RezaDorrani]

Glad you found this video useful

[@erangadharmarathne861]

how the power app works in mobile phone?

[@RezaDorrani]

App will need to run in context of power bi only.

[@kadirkkkk]

Just an extra info: For both powerBI dateset refresh and dateset refresh via power automate refresh you can only use 8 times a day. so poor :( after 8 times you get an error message for dateset refresh

[@RezaDorrani]

That is true for datasets in import query mode. I believe you can go up-to 40 refreshes per day with additional licensing.

What if the PowerBIIntegration it doesn´t get created? how can I force it to get created?? I have press the new app button and also the choose an app button and the PowerBIIntegration function is not showing up in the Power Apps Studio.

[@RezaDorrani]

There is an ongoing bug with this feature. I read about it on the forums. Are you trying this on Power BI Desktop? Try on Power BI browser (web).
