Power BI leads the user to believe it is possible to export summarized data at the level of the current view. In fact, the result of [Matrix grid] > Ellipsis > Export data is that data is exported at the lowest level of the drill-down path.

In one case, I am viewing 4 rows of data in my matrix grid (drilled up to the top level of the data hierarchy). When I export to xlsx, i get over 15,000 rows of data (summarized at the lowest level of my data hierarchy).

Users should be able to export data at the level they are currently drilled down to on their report.

When is this coming? We might shift to other reporting platform if this doesn't get solved in next couple of weeks.

I thought this functionality was added in the last year. What a disappointment :(

RE: Allow export of summarized data

One of the most commonly requested features from my end users. Workaround is basically never adding drill downs, disabling one of the amazing features.

Need an update on this functionality from Microsoft. This is going to be a deal breaker for my organization.

This usually creates confusion for the end users, please add this feature so the dashboards in PBI will be more user friendly in terms of extracting the data.

Is there a work around that anyone has found?

RE: Allow export of summarized data

This really needs to be resolved: if summarized in a matrix then "export as summarized" should be the current visualization displayed. So if summarized (not drilled down) then Excel gives as displayed in Power BI view. Else if drilled down and or filtered you get what is visualized in Power BI View in Excel.

This is a must have. Please
