Hello,

Using Power Query's "Get Data" in Excel allows you to create a "Live Connect" connection to a Power BI Dataset, which then opens in a Power Pivot table.

The option to use Power BI and create a Direct Query connection from Power BI to a Power BI dataset in Service was recently released. Would be great to get this capability added to Excel's PowerQuery
