    I have volumes of information to share with my teams that is best presented in tables and matrices. It would be a huge improvement if they were able to export the data from the visualizations and have the formatting in Excel match the formatting created within PowerBI.

    This would be especially helpful for ongoing forecasting activities.

    Thanks for your feedback on this issue - while we'd like to enable this, there is currently no timetable around doing so. There is the option as a workaround the create a paginated view as a drillthrough of the visual and have a formatted version you can export to Excel, but understand this isn't a solution everyone can take advantage of currently.

    I support the request for this option. I need the visualization as shown to be exported (or select All, Copy/Paste). One or multiple screen grabs of the presented visualization does not deliver to requirements.

    Please consider adding this. Possibly easier to implement than many other ideas on there and would be a massive improvement to the product.

    Please, please add this option. Without that Power BI is almost useless for Self-service BI and/or report sharing.

    We need a comment from Power BI developers on this!

    This data export feature is absolutely essential. Losing to Qlik, Tableau, etc.

    Functionality if needed. Having associates export and rebuild in a pivot is not efficient.

    RE: Allow Table and Matrix Data Exports to Match PowerBI Visual

    Users should not have to redo the pivots. Please add the functionality

    RE: Allow Table and Matrix Data Exports to Match PowerBI Visual

    I agree, this was one of the first feature requests received from our end users upon release. Please add the functionality.

    RE: Allow Table and Matrix Data Exports to Match PowerBI Visual

    This is a big problem for my organization. We use the matrix visualization extensively. As it currently stands, people can't export due to the massive amounts of data underlying a matrix that has many drill down layers. The export should only contain what the matrix actually shows.
