Many users from my organisation needs to be able to export or save changes made to Excel files hosted in Power BI Report Server to their local drives. This is a very sought after feature. Saving to the server would also be acceptable.

Edit capabilities is enabled on the Office Online Server, but disabled for Excel in Power BI Report Server.

Please enable Edit, Save or Export capabilities to Excel files hosted in Power BI Report Server through Office Online Server.

RE: Capability to edit Excel workbooks hosted in Power BI Report Server and save it locally

I'd love this to be added. We have moved from SharePoint on-prem to online, but the only reason we have it still on-prem is that we can save and edit Excel Workbooks connected to on-prem data sources. The ability to save directly in Power BI report Server would be the last thing we need to complete our migration...
