    is it possible to add support for "duration" data type in the report view as in Power Query?

    I need to sum tiny fast durations into hh:mm:ss total durations as axes on charts!

    this seems like such an easy and long outstanding feature to add, would be great if we could add this

    I am new to PowerBI and having duration so you can easily use hh:mm:ss and create a measure or calculation is very necessary. I am trying to use PowerBI for Call Center data.

    RE: field of "duration" type

    Anyone working with e.g. call data with many kinds of duration is pretty much hopeless. You guys put some work into it please.

    Duration in PowerQuery works a treat. Looks fantastic.
    And then totally lost when loaded into Power BI.
    Any chance you might finish the job and add genuine duration data type in Power BI now?

    Much needed, rather than extensive calculation
