    RE: VBA for Power BI Desktop

    agree with vba integration ... as well as native integration into MS Access since the charting functionality is severely limited

    Vba programming in power bi would be of great help. It will certainly help excel users to do dynamic reports building in power bi.

    RE: VBA for Power BI Desktop

    VBA would be great. Trying to play Excel tricks like hiding menus with bookmarks is quite cumbersome. Need to have more ways to control the user friendliness. Watching clients sharing screen today and it simply wasn't natural for them to look for things like drill down in the heirarchy in the pop-up menus. At least in my organization they are quite used to macros working behind the scenes on events or actively with buttons.

    RE: VBA for Power BI Desktop

    I use VBA extensively with Excel, but I would vote for Python because it is non-proprietary and interfaces with the rest of the world.

    RE: VBA for Power BI Desktop

    When only poor data is available, VBA is required to improve the output.
    The "applied steps" does help for most cases, but in some rare cases, it won't be possible to solve it that way.
    In order to reduce some steps it would be good to allow excel vba start the Power BI update.
