Hi experts,
I created a report with custom visual. The data source is from an Excel file. I hope to use the definition of the data, while update the data dynamically when the custom visual is loaded. e.g. assume the Excel file is defined as:
ID Material Type
----------------------------
123 Glass Wall
When custom visual is loaded., I hope to update the data , or append data.
ID Material Type
----------------------------
123 Glass Wall
456 Steel Beam
Excel is a static data source, it is understandable it cannnot be upated in custom visual. I am wondering if the only ways are:
if these are the only approaches, how to notifiy report to refresh with the newest data?
Thanks for any input!
Use a PowerApps visual for data write-back into the data source. That's currently the only option (ok, besides R or Python script visuals).
@XiaodongLiang - Use a data source such as Azure SQL that supports DirectQuery. Then the data is always the latest.
