Using PowerApps Visual in Power BI (Integration)

#PowerApps #PowerBI #PowerAppsVisual

In this video on Using PowerApps Visual in Power BI (Integration) we will use the PowerApps Custom visual in Power BI to add/update data in Microsoft Dataverse/CDS using Direct Query Mode.
The Power App will refresh the Power BI report instantaneously and provide a virtually unlimited refresh scenario. The Power BI report is using Microsoft Dataverse with direct query mode to not rely on scheduled refreshes or imports.
SharePoint Import Mode is also covered as part of this video.

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.

Last year I wrote in one of your videos that you're the best guy for power platforms. One year later, i must confess that not only i view the new video but also review the old ones because I always find sth relevant. You have no idea how you've been helping me. May god bless you even more 🤩

Reza, you are a savior! I was looking to expand PowerBI Integration in existing PowerApp and these small tricks are not covered on the web. I should've start straight with your videos. Thank you so much.

Your favorite word is definitely "Go ahead". Lost count of how many times you say it.
But I will go ahead and say that your video is very informative. Thank you!

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....

Hello Reza! As always great video! quick question: If my existing powerapp has more than one screen, which will be displayed by default in PowerBI ?

[luffygear]

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.
