Cortana search in Windows 10 not working since July 2016

Hi,

 

I have a report in PowerBI desktop which is also avaialble on Powerbi.com.  The Q&A works great on my web browser.  I am trying to query the same dataset using Cortana but it is not working since July 2016.  Till before July 2016, Cortana integration was working very well.

 

I have followed all steps mentioend at this link.

 

How do i get back the Cortana integration feature.

Hi @Ashish_Mathur,

 

It seems that the capability of creating visuals using natural language within Cortana has been removed. Now we need to create Cortana sized report pages after enabling Cortana for Power BI and retrieve them through Cortana.

 

So could you try creating a custom answer Page for Cortana following the steps in this article to see if it works? And here is a similar thread for your reference.Smiley Happy

Hi,

 

Thank you for replying.  It is indeed disheartening to know that this feature has been deprecated.

Hi

 

Is there any chance that the functionality to ask random questions to cortana datasets is coming back to Windows 10? Or is there more information why it has been removed?
