Allow me to utilize SSRS PowerView just like I can with Excel PowerView and pin reports to the dashboard, however with SSRS, I would like to connect to on-prem data sources

Hi Doug, thanks for the suggestion. We have another suggestion for connections to on-prem data sources. Can you elaborate on the SSRS Power View requirement? Do you need to upload existing rdlx reports?

RE: PowerView rdlx connecting to on-prem data source

We have tried the visuals interactions options but what we need to make it better something like a cascading filters. These cascading filters should be persistent even when i click on other chart/visual - so that it give me a drill through multiple dimensions to implement a specific set of conditions. The chart should show a green/red/grey dot on top to indicate that the filter is on/off/inactive. Also the title of the chart should indicate the selected slice.

Step in the right direction, but mobile support is essential!

RE: PowerView rdlx connecting to on-prem data source

So is anyone else having problem selecting their slicers in the mobile app environment?

Agreed, we need this feature to be more flexible and usable on the mobile application. The idea is great, but it doesn't work as hoped.

Thanks for the December 14th update. However, after testing this I was disappointed to discover it is not supported through the mobile application. I'm I missing something? The 'report' dashboard tile is not visible through the mobile app.

Essential feature, I will not share my dashboard without a slicer. Thanks!

agree with Tyler:
This is absolutely critical - we have a client waiting on this before adopting PowerBI.

Better using Global Fiter as combo not list so user can easily choose the category or so on

RE: PowerView rdlx connecting to on-prem data source

What I would like to do is upload .RDLX reports which are actually Power View reports designed in SharePoint.
