Microsoft MVP

    Hi Gil,

    In case Microsoft or somebody else won’t agree with you to “leak” your .PBIX file, I think you can make a workaround by reproducing it as a demo version with fictitious data, Basically I think readers can learn a lot of tricks from it, right?

    Hi Gil,

    I tried to use PowerQuery to extract the web data like your pitfalls and unpivot series but failed, It sounded to me that QuickBooks Web Connector or something else is one of the tools to make it happen. If this is the case, would you please guide me a walkthrough how to use it? After all, Being unable to get the data first, it’s no way to do anything furthermore,

      Hi Julian,
      Not sure I follow. Are you asking for a QuickBook walkthrough or Import from Web as I did for the MVP site?

    Did you mean you can import data from MVP site with Excel PowerQuery or PowerBI desktop alone, no need to use QuickBook? Yes, that’s what I wanted. I tried many times but got nothing.
