    Agree. Even with the fancy gadgets within Power BI, pivot tables are still the most common platform for data analysis. You want people to use Power BI ? then let them have access to the most common analytical tool: Pivot Tables.

    This is a must-have for enterprise adoption of PowerBI. Need to be able to develop and then deploy a solution, not just the data.

    I was expecting to start here, importing many of my existing models, but... vaporware.

    I was also shocked that it was not possible. That was the first thing I did and disappointing. Now I need to go back and tell my users not now..

    Make the Dashboards refresh when the corresponding Report is refreshed

    When you click on a dashboard part on the web make it act like the iPad dashboards by have that part pop out

    absolutely needed - alot of the work I did for clients involved building data models using Excel Power Pivots & Power View. Importing & Modifying these models using Power Bi Desktop is critical.
    Do you have a date by which this will be completed Miguel.
    I see you all started work on this back in Mar 23
