Is there any plan to integrate PowerBI dashboard with outlook Emails? like adding a set of html tags/ plugin where i can refer my PowerBI Dashboard url so that people who receive my E-Mail can interact with the charts and controls right from their outlook than going to the online website.

RE: PowerBI Outlook Integration
There are many asks where the stakeholders want to have quick email reports on a daily or weekly basis to keep track of the important metrics. It's understandable for the intent to have the report over the email vs checking it out over Power BI service or app, because no one wants to switch over different apps to have a quick sneak on the their daily metrics.
So, my suggestion to overcome this issue is to have same interactive functionality (or some to start with) within the outlook emails, so that users can quickly play around with their metrics without switching out from their email application. Like embedded Power BI for web pages, can it possible to have embedded Power BI for emails? May be have a Outlook plugin to do these stuffs. This is definitely going to boost both Power BI and Outlook markets.
Let me know if you have any questions around it.
Thank you!

I have new concept that for small industry most of the data take from the outlook email and daily basis download and save the data file to the specific folder that connected with Power BI.
Its for new innovation to link the Power BI report to direct selected email attachment.
for in Outlook this file need for rule the specific data email move to the define folder and that outlook folder link to power BI

This principle is simple and already exists with outlook add-ins for Dynamics products.
When you receive an e-mail, you get a button (hyperlink) to a power BI report filtered by that e-mail address. The e-mail of the sender should be stored in the power BI report.
use case:
you get an e-mail from a specific employee of your customer. One click gets you straight into your favourite power BI report (of choice) filtered on that customer. Here you have an overview of everything you should know about the customer. Giving you instant insights to correctly answer that e-mail.

once the BI is published, all our users are using it to filter the data and analyse it, once they have the data they need they will export it to excel and attach it to a mail. would be great to have a possibility to open a new mail and attach the table to it directly from the BI.
