    I have volumes of information to share with my teams that is best presented in tables and matrices. It would be a huge improvement if they were able to export the data from the visualizations and have the formatting in Excel match the formatting created within PowerBI.

    This would be especially helpful for ongoing forecasting activities.

    I find it quite bizarre that other tools have excellent export to excel functionality...and the BI tool from Microsoft fails miserably at it. Please make this happen!

    Still waiting for this basic functionality that other BI platforms allow. Have been following this thread for a long time now.

    Any update on this feature, please? This was planned for Oct 2021 (https://docs.microsoft.com/en-us/power-platform-release-plan/2021wave2/power-bi/export-excel-improvements-table-matrix-visuals) and we have been waiting. This is a feature that has been requested by customers over and again.

    We are trying to migrate from Tableau to Power BI. Due to the lack of this feature, we are not able to completely convert to Power BI. I cant ask user to export form Power BI to Excel and reformat data, add sub-total and compare it to Power BI again, for each and every time. Defeats the purpose of having Power BI on the first place.
    How come this small feature is not available is beyond belief!

    Come one Microsoft, do something about it! Don't force people on how to use the product. Give us the flexibility to move our data from Power BI to Excel easily. This feature is really required for to complete the migration.

    In 2021, asking for this feature is like asking for Ctrl+C and Ctrl+V, if you know what I mean.

    Any update on timing? This feature will be transformational for our users.
