    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.

    This request is really a MUST for most of us users! Really a big limit for PowerBI.

    This is a serious limitation which is causing headaches for our customers and support teams. I hope Microsoft escalates this for a solution soon.

    This is solved - BI Helper Matrix is a Chrome extension for table and matrix data exports from Power BI.

    Go to https://bihelper.tech/bihelper_matrix.html to download and test the solution.

    Please don't say it is solved by Chrome extension called BI Helper Matrix. I don't want to use Chrome and i can't ask my clients to use Chrome. MS needs to come with a solution within Power BI Desktop/service.

    At present, we have to use other tools to share dashbord data.
    We need export matrix data.
    Please improve Power BI.

    It's a shame on Microsoft that not able or not like to realize a basic feature after 4 years of complaints of their customers.

    I agree, This is a basic feature expectation from Microsoft. Otherwise, we have to think about other products
