A common ask I have been receiving is the ability to determine which PowerBI report is executing from in Snowflake. The ask is to add the ability to supply a query tag at the report level when executing against Snowflake. This will solve two issues: 1. Which report the executed a particular query. 2. For large organizations, this will give the ability to track the Snowflake costs by report.

RE: Ability to add query tag for reports using Snowflake

This is a needed feature that is available in most enterprise BI tools today.

RE: Ability to add query tag for reports using Snowflake

I agree with Ted. This feature would enable us to identify the report that generated a particular query. Why is this important? Because, in an organization that runs 100's of Power BI reports in Snowflake, when a query is running long it is terminated by the DBA team and we need a way to identify the report that generated the query so we can fix the query (i.e., make it more efficiient)

RE: Ability to add query tag for reports using Snowflake

I agree with Katie below, this would be extremely helpful. Currently, it is one of the differentiators that is stopping our entire organization from committing to Microsoft as a whole with a BI solution. Work here would go a long way as to winning our business in licensing this further.

Yes this would greatly help with breaking out cost by report.

This would be very useful to anyone who wants to centrally manage support, so they could quickly trace through problems!!

This feature is really needed to track performance and cost at dashboard level

RE: Ability to add query tag for reports using Snowflake

This would be ideal for the exact reasons in the original request and is a significant gap with PowerBI compared to other "modern" tools.
