Power BI Paginated Report Builder

3 March 2025

This application will act as the primary authoring experience for paginated reports in the Power BI service going forward.  By creating a new authoring tool for paginated reports in Power BI, separate from SQL Server Reporting Services Report Builder, we can provide a familiar experience, but specifically optimize for publishing to the Power BI Service.

Power BI Report Builder enables you to:

• Use the Report Builder ribbon to quickly add items your reports, launch table, chart, and map wizards, and format your report data.
• Add data from built-in data providers.
• Create and use report parameters and other interactive features.
• Preview reports in HTML or print format.
• Export reports to file formats such as Microsoft Excel or PDF.
• Save your report locally
• In a future update, you’ll be able to both open and publish from/to the Power BI Service
