RE: Data export from Q&A screen
Just a note, I couldn't search on Q&A within the Fabric Ideas search box because the ampersand needs escaping or something, so I have a feeling people are unable to vote on this suggestion.Q&A is a great feature, but as many have stated it's not full featured. I would think that it would be little work for MS to improve it. *Export to Excel is a must*Show record count*Allow it to have better capability for showing wide data sets (like Employee lists). We'd really like Q&A for a Paginated Report for our use case so that we don't need to create 25 parameters.*Better way to selectively pick which columns display in which order
RE: Data export from Q&A screen
why is this pending? Goodness - what is the use of Q&A if we can't export the data as a table like any other chart.
RE: Data export from Q&A screen
Data export will be a valuable feature for developers to embed the results returned onto an application. This will also give the ability to customize the results returned from a UI perspective.
RE: Data export from Q&A screen
Agree with the other comments, PowerBI Q&A is awesome and would be even better if it could export data. Our consumers get very excited when they see what it is capable of. Then they ask the next logical question of "how do I export this" and then we hear the price-is-right horn in the background.
RE: Data export from Q&A screen
Extremely important feature. You can ask me why - the first mover will gain significant market share in the BI market e.g. Thoughtspot relational search engine. Despite Thoughtspot positioning on this single feature, they have attracted investments and customers. This is the feature that customer value so much because it is so easy to look for what they need. Since Power BI is so close, Data export from Q&A is extremely important.
RE: Data export from Q&A screen
Giving users the ability to do their own Q&A is a great idea, but in order to be truly useful many users need the ability to export the data so they can do further data manipulations. As it is now, it's great for demos and answering quick questions, but it's not very useful for in-depth analysis.
RE: Data export from Q&A screen
Q&A has huge potential; however, this will not be fully released unless it is made possible for the user to export the underlying data from the resulting visualization.
