For those who are data nerds like me…. I found a new way to interact with Power BI datasets in Excel using PivotTables. In this basic tutorial, I can show you how to bring the data into Excel for analysis.
Click Insert tab and you should see an option to create a PivotTable from Power BI.

A flyout panel will appear with all of the datasets that the user can choose from.



After clicking on the dataset you want, a blank PivotTable will be created and you will see all your Measures and Tables in the fields list. From there, a few clicks and you will have a report showing all the projects you worked on. Users can pull data data through their data gateway, into the Power BI tabular model, and out into excel for exploratory analysis.
