Power Automate Visual empowers integration of your flows into Power BI reports

Turn your Power BI reports into interactive, actionable dashboards. The Power Automate visual adds a customizable button to any Power BI report that lets users trigger automated workflows with a single click, directly from the data they're already analyzing. Data-contextual automation: flows triggered from the visual can receive dynamic inputs based on the filters and selections the viewer has applied in the report. For example, a sales manager reviewing regional performance can click the button and automatically generate a follow-up email, create a task, or update a record in SharePoint or Dynamics 365, all scoped to the specific region, product, or time period they've selected. Who is it for? Report authors and business analysts who build Power BI reports for teams across their organization. If you create reports that inform decisions (sales dashboards, operational views, financial summaries) this visual lets you close the gap between insight and action. End users who consume those reports benefit too: they can act on data without leaving the report or switching to another tool. What problem does it solve? Today, when a Power BI report surfaces an insight that requires action (an anomaly, a threshold breach, a follow-up task) users must manually leave the report, open another application, and carry out the next step themselves. This creates delays, context-switching, and the risk that important actions fall through the cracks. The Power Automate visual eliminates that friction by embedding automation directly into the reporting experience, enabling users to take immediate, data-driven action right where they discover the insight. Key capabilities: - Add a button to your Power BI report that triggers a cloud flow - Pass report data as dynamic inputs to the flow - Connect to 1,000+ connectors: send emails, create records, post messages, update databases, and more - Customize button text, colors, and formatting to match your report design - Share flows with report viewers using run-only permissions
