Connecting to Excel workbooks in OneDrive is a great first step, but connectivity to Google Sheets should be there too.

Thanks for the suggestions! I've split out the other cloud storage options into separate ideas for people to vote on.

>My refreshes are timing out because it's downloading the full dataset from GA when i'm just interested in 5% of it. Please add the ability to filter on load via the GA API.

This absolutely, and if custom segments could be implemented as well it would make the GA connector even more powerful.

Google Like Search Results

One of the things that is lacking within Power BI is a powerful search function.

I realise that there are some built ins and questions can be asked, however it would be very helpful to have a google like search page within a report were you can search by one or more strings and then get the results in a fashion where you can easily see what you are looking for and click on that.

This is just an initial thought and not fully fleshed out, but one of the real powers of data mining is getting quick answers. On top of that it would be to get the right answer more quickly and easily. There are many use cases I would think on how you would want to display the results.

This may branch out from just a traditional high level report. However perhaps it also builds upon what you already have, but you would just put a better front end / gui on this.

We have millions of records and like using Alexa / Cortana / Google - it would be nice to expedite the search function and results in a manner that can display the results in more then one format.
