I have a ColdFusion report (version 9) that opens to a *.csv file. The file will render to the screen, it used to open Excel automatically. The data is in a *.csv format. If you right click on the page, do a save as *.csv, it will open in excel at that point. It would be nice if it just opened in excel, like it used to do it. Maybe this is some new security setting in the browser that blocks it from automatically opening? I set the local work station extension to open Excel with a *.csv but that did not help. Using Chrome & IE browsers.

I'm new to power bi. I have developed a dashboard on power bi desktop. It reads some .csv files as data source. Now I need to move it to another machine, names of those csv files are the same, path is the only thing to be updated.
Is it possible to change the path only, instead of rebuilding this dashboard? Thanks.
In Power BI Desktop:
Go to File - Options - Data Source settings
Select your csv-file
Click the Change Source ... button and change the file path
I have search for a while and can't find a solution to this problem.
If i press the 00002 here i want it to open the invoice file from a folder. Is this possible in PowerBI.
Not a local file, but if you have a web server that can serve the file you can Add hyperlinks (URLs) to a table or matrix.
I have Interactive report with 15 columns.
For downloading report i used Download function from Action menu.
When I tried to download report in csv format with 10 selected coulmn.. Csv does not contain all that selected 10 columns.
Only few columns are shown in csv file
Oracle APEX uses the same query defined for HTML output to generate the csv for download, it applies same rules that is applied on HTML(from apex builder) report.
If you are seeing any gaps, that must be due to settings.
Try to open the report in incognito mode and download it.
I'm connecting Power BI Desktop to a Tabular model as my data source, and the model recently changed names.
When I open the report in Power BI Desktop, an error window pops up, and doesn't go away even when clicking on Close or X.
Since this error window won't go away, I can't Edit Queries to fix the problem.
Does anyone have any suggestions for how to make the error go away, or how to change the data source without opening the report in Desktop?
Thank you.
Text of the error: Cannot load model. We couldn't connect to your Analysis Services database.
Double-check that your server and database names are correct, and make sure you have permission to access them.
The Model cube either does not exist or has not been processed.
If only the name of your Tabular Model datasource has changed Power BI will prompt you to edit the connection.
However, if you were connecting to a Perspective which no-longer exists you will get the following error:
Cannot Load Model
We couldn't connect to your Analysis Services
database. Double-check that your server and database names are
correct, and that you have permission to access them.
The cube either does not exist or has not been processed.
error message
To fix this you must edit the PBIX file directly.
Rename the file as a zip and extract it.
In the root folder there is a 'Connections' file.
Edit it to remove the 'Cube=' reference:
{"Version":1,
"Connections":[{"Name":"EntityDataSource",
"ConnectionString":"Data Source=TEST-DB;Initial Catalog=TestAS;Cube=Labour",
"ConnectionType":"analysisServicesDatabaseLive"}]}
becomes
{"Version":1,
"Connections":[{"Name":"EntityDataSource",
"ConnectionString":"Data Source=TEST-DB;Initial Catalog=TestAS",
"ConnectionType":"analysisServicesDatabaseLive"}]}
Then delete the 'SecurityBindings' file.
If you don't Power BI with throw this error:
Unable to open document
This file is corrupted or was created by an unrecognized version of Power BI Desktop. It can't be opened.
unable to open document error
Now zip the files up again and rename it as a .pbix file.
If you still get a 'corrupted file' message be sure you did not include the folder that you expanded the PBIX into in the new zip. The root of the new zip file must hold the Reports folder, [Content_Types].xml, Connections, DataMashup, etc
AFAIK You can make any change to a PBIX file this way, the key is to delete SecurityBindings.
Please open the powerbi file in the older version and there it will allow to change the connection.
I want to export the Interactive Grid data into an excel. How can I do that. In the download option in Actions tab, it only has csv and HTML option.
Can we add an option there to download the report in excel. Or can we add a button separtely, on click of which the report can be downloaded in xls.
Thanks,
Abha
CSV is Excel. Not a true MS Excel file (i.e. XLS or XLSX), but - Excel opens a Comma-Separated-Values file without any problems.
So - export as CSV, open with Excel. Should be just fine.
Yes, interactive reports and grids support exporting to native Excel (xlsx), as well as Word (rtf) and PDF.
To enable this there are multiple options:
Oracle BI Publisher
FOP (ORDS)
APEX Office Print (AOP)
Once you have configured the print server (this is an APEX instance-wide setting), you can then enable the output options in your IR or IG regions.

(note: I'm not sure that all the other printing options mentioned in this link support interactive reports or grids)
