is it possible to add support for "duration" data type in the report view as in Power Query?

RE: field of "duration" type

Power BI and Google Analytics should be best friends forever.... and for that, we need a proper format for duration time, with the ability to properly calculate aggregates of duration time. Need. It. Badly.

Can someone give us feedback when it will be implemented?

RE: field of "duration" type

At least it will be also great if we will be able to set custom axes information in accordance to duration. Bar chart can reflect the data in seconds (as a classic measure), but the data signature/label can be done in duration format (something like mm:ss)

RE: field of "duration" type

Please add normal duration behaviour in bar chart. We want to see the Duration on the Y-Axis in HH : MM : SS format.
I need to build infographics on marathon events, and I can't do this properly with PowerBI. Meanwhile Tableau and Qlik provide such possibility.

RE: field of "duration" type

Yeah, something like this would be pretty helpful for trying to switch reporting from pivot tables etc to POWER BI

RE: field of "duration" type

I've just tried to upload information into Power BI the hours are in the [h]:mm:ss however it cannot cope with this format and anyone working over 24 hours are now showing incorrectly.

Can you please add this.
