Does Power BI has similar feature as Power Pivot Gallery in SharePoint 2013?

Hi,
I have a data model in an Excel file, and I would like to publish it to the Power Pivot Gallery, so other people can connect to the data model in their workbooks and create their own visualizations. How do you achieve this in Power BI?
Thanks, Hilda

Is it possible that you have imported data from SQL Server into an Excel worksheet and then created a Power Pivot model from that data rather than importing the data directly from SQL Server into Power Pivot?
In the PowerPivot designer, click the Existing Connections button on the Home ribbon to verify the source of data for each table in your model.

Hi Aditya,
Thanks for your reply.
I am using Enterprise edition of SharePoint 2013 only. SQL Server 2012 SP1.
I have configured Reporing Services also successfully. I got "Reporting" folder in "15" hive location "C:\Program Files\Common Files\microsoft shared\Web Server Extensions\15\WebServices"
SSRS Service application also i have created success in CA Manage Service Application.
I have done "Reporting Services Add-in for SharePoint" also which is "rsSharePoint.msi".
What should i do apart from this? Can you tell me. Its frustrating like anything.
I have added the "PowerPivot" excel in "PowerPivot Gallery" and clicked the icon "Create Power View Report"
Thanks in Advance.

Can't save power pivot report back to power pivot gallery...file is read only

Hi eb
I have developed an excel pivot report in a power pivot gallery (all in 2013).
Next time i open that report from the power pivot gallery and attempt to save it again to the gallery
I am blocked with a msg: we cant save http://........./powerpivot gallery/myPwerPvt.xslx file is read only.
To keep your changes you'll need to save the woorkbook with a new name or different location.
Please help!
TIA
Rea

Hi Rea,
When you try to edit the PowerPivot workbook, are you open it as read-only mode? Please see the screenshot below:
The "Read Only" mode will not be able to save any changes to the workbook you are loading.
In addition, is it work for you while you save the PowerPivot workbook with a new name?

Is it Possible to Add a Power Pivot Gallery App in Office 365

Hi,
I had created a site collection by using Business Intelligence center Template in Office 365(E3 Subscription).
But I am not able to see Power Pivot Gallery App to Add.
I tried to find and activate any feature depends on this. But could not find any
Is there any way to Add?
Thanks in Advance...

Power BI is the o365 equivalent of the power pivot gallery in on-premises sp.
It's an extra opt-in addon (more $) to the regular o365 subscription -
http://www.microsoft.com/en-us/powerBI/pricing.aspx
Don't believe it's possible to add a powerpivot gallery app to o365, but might be better to ask @ the o365 forums.

Display Power Pivot Gallery on a page?

Using SharePoint 2013, I am trying to put the Gallery view of a power pivot gallery on a web page. I would like to do this so that I can have a couple of other web parts displayed on the same web
page. Thinking this would be pretty straight forward, I tried the following:
Use the list view web part to display the gallery view of the library. This didn't work, it just displays the list as if it were a standard document library. No Siverlight control was
rendered.
Copy the Gallery.aspx file from the library. Give a new name. My initial try of this looked hopeful but even though the SiverLight control rendered, no content was displayed.
Obviously, this isn't something that is supported out of the box. I'm wondering if anyone has done this and wouldn't mind sharing the steps.

Hi Matt,
For this issue, I'm trying to involve someone familiar with this topic to further look at it.
Thanks,

Power view reports in sharepoint 2013 :

How can i add alert and subscription for the power view report in sharepoint 2013 ?.
and please let me know the difference beetween the performance point service and power view report.
Please response fast.

Hi,
According to your post, my understanding is that you wanted to add alert and subscription for the power view report in sharepoint 2013.
You need to Additional Configuration to provision for subscriptions and alerts when you install Reporting Services SharePoint Mode for SharePoint 2013.
The Reporting Services subscription and data alert features may require the configuration of SQL Server Agent permissions. For more information, see
Provision Subscriptions and Alerts for SSRS Service Applications
PerformancePoint Services is a SharePoint Server 2013 service application. It enables users to create business intelligence (BI) dashboards that provide insight into an organization's performance. You can create custom reports, filters, tabular data sources,
and scorecard transforms to extend the native functionality of PerformancePoint Services.
Power View in SharePoint is browser-based Silverlight application, a feature of the SQL Server 2012 Service Pack 1 (SP 1) Reporting Services Add-in for Microsoft SharePoint Server 2010 and 2013. Creating, opening, and saving Power View reports (RDLX files)
all take place in SharePoint Server 2010 and 2013.
More information:
PerformancePoint Services in SharePoint 2013
Power View (SSRS)

Thank you for your understanding.

Power pivot gallery excel auto data refresh 401 error

thanks i was referring to an automatic refresh while the excel report opens, before user has any interaction with it.
Apparenty the classic pivot table option in excel works in sharepoint's excel services just the same!

Do you need an additional slot for the RBS and does the RBS count as an additional hard drive in the Sharepoint 2013 Server farm?

Hello Community
    If you have a clustered Sharepoint 2013 Server farm running RAID 10, on a
clustered WS2012 R2 server that has 10 hard drive slots:
        (4) drives being part of the Sharepoint 2013 Server farm
        (1) drive for the Web App Server
        (5) are for hot swap if any of the production hard drives fail
    The question(s) is:
        - If the server only has 10 slots for hard drives are you still allowed to add a
NAS/RBS drive and does the NAS/RBS drive get clustered also, or does this scenario require
reducing the RAID level down to RAID 5 to allow for NAS/RBS hard drive?
        - Does the NAS/RBS hard drive need a hard drive for hot swap?
        - Does the NAS/RBS drive have to have Sharepoint 2013 Server or WS2012 R2 running on it?
        - Does the Web App Server have Sharepoint 2013 running or just WS2012 R2 running on it?
    Thank you
    Shabeaut

RAID 10 requires a minimum of 4 hard drives. The LUN for RBS must be attached to the SQL Server, not SharePoint server, as a local drive. You just need to be running the minimum required OS for the version of SQL Server you're using.
Do you mean Office Web Apps by "Web App Server"? If so, that cannot have SharePoint installed on it. Otherwise, if you're just referring to it as another SharePoint server, yes it would have SharePoint installed on it.

Power Pivot 2013 Using SharePoint 2013 List as Source Data

Background: On a SharePoint 2013 site, there are lists that have the exact same columns but due to their size I had to create a different list for each year.
These are essentially my data lists or tables that end users enter data into. These lists have look up columns in them, referencing columns from look up lists or tables located on the same site.
Goals:
1) Create a Power Pivot Gallery on SharePoint 2013 that is able to leverage the "manage data refresh" feature using the SharePoint 2013 List data that is on the same SharePoint 2013 site.
2) Combine all the data lists/tables into one table once in Power Pivot 2013. The Look Up lists/tables will remain separate.
Challenge: Being able to merge or do a union query to the "data lists" and still maintain the ability to leverage the "manage data refresh" feature.
This is a tactical, quick fix solution, and I
cannot use SQL Server and am operating under the assumption that I do not have Access Services 2013 as an option.
Failed Attempt #1: What I already tried was linking the lists to an Access 2013 database and did a Union query from Power Pivot which merged the data from the different data tables
as I wanted it to. Then I uploaded that Access Database to a document library on that same site, thinking that I could maintain the ability to leverage the "manage data refresh" feature but I was wrong.
Any thoughts or suggestions?
Thanks in advance for any help!
Cheers, Johnny
Johnny

You can connect to SharePoint Lists using Power Query (and of course Union multiple Lists and more using Pwer Query) - but Automatic refresh would not work with SharePoint. Power BI (Cloud service) allows auto refresh of Power Query, but not on SharePoint.
Hopefully some day soon.

Does SharePoint 2013 have Power Query services similar to Power Pivot and Power View?

Does SharePoint 2013 include services to host/support Power Query content similar to the way it hosts Power Pivot content in the Power Pivot Gallery?

Miguel. Is there an update to this? New information or new timeline?
We have SP 2013 Enterprise, on-prem. I'm finding that Power Query 's ability to get CSV or XML or other Web Services content, and then load it up to PowerPivot, is a way to address the lack of ODATA connectivity options on the web. :-(
I would very much like to be able to create an XLS doc, with a Power Query to a CSV file, Loaded to PowerPivot, and have SP's Excel Services/PowerPivot engine continue to update the content for me. It fails today, as you stated above.
Do you even think this will be updated for the on-prem version of SharePoint 2013 or will it only live in Power BI for Office 365?

Power View for Sharepoint 2013 'Feature not available'

Hello All,
We are trying to set up Power view in Sharepoint but every time I click the power button on a report we get the "The
feature: "Power View" is not supported in this edition of Reporting Services." error.
Our setup consists of two servers. One is the sharepoint 2013 Enterprise server and the other is our DW server that sits outside of the farm.
The DW Server has Sql 2012 SP1 (Enterprise) and two instances of AS, one in multi-dimensional mode and one with power pivot for SP.
We were able to get power pivot working with Sharepoint without issue but we can't seem to get Power View to work. I've read through some threads but it still doesn't seem clear what I need to do. Someone mentioned that we needed to install Sharepoint
on the DW server but we would like to avoid that if we can due to the current load on the server. Another suggestion was to install the RsSharepoint on the sharepoint server and that would enable power view.
I know there is already an RS Service app, would that needed removed as well?

Only SQL BI and SQL Enterprise have the appropriate edition of Reporting Services to enable PowerView:
http://technet.microsoft.com/en-us/library/cc645993(v=sql.110).aspx#Reporting
You would need to uninstall SSRS using SQL Standard and re-install with BI or Enterprise on the SharePoint server.

Power Pivot enable Excel workbook protection with password?

Hi All
We have a power pivot deployment without SharePoint in excel 2013 professional plus. All woks fine until we use a password to protect excel workbook so unauthorised users cannot open it. After enabling password protection we cannot access the power pivot
data model under power pivot excel tab. It tries to upgrade the power pivot model(which is not logical because it didn't do it before and was working fine). thereafter upgrade fails.
Has anyone successfully password protected a power pivot excel 2013 workbook? Is there a workaround to enabling security without SharePoint/office 365 etc?
Thanks
Sonny

Hi Sonny,
PowerPivot does not support row security or dynamic security. Security for a workbook is just a binary choice – either a user can read a workbook or she can’t.
In this case, I would suggest you consider designing Tabular model which can be secured using row security and dynamic security is also supported. For more information, please see:

Power Pivot Field list in not displayed in Power Pivot-Ribbon / Missing Power View-Ribbon

Hi
I've got the following probem, when I add a Pivot Table from inside the Power Pivot Data Model I only get the ordinary Pivottable Field list.
When I look into the Power Pivot Ribbon there is
no 'Field list' inside the ribbon. Not even a disabled one (grey) is visible.
And there's another problem, I miss the Power View-Ribbon, there is nothing available in the ribbon, although the Power View-AddIn is activated.
My configuration
Windows 7 - 64 bit
Office 2010 - 32 bit incl. Power Pivot - everything with Power Pivot works fine
Excel 2013 - 32 bit incl. Power Pivot - here's the missing Power Pivot Field list / Power View-Ribbon
Does anyone has an idea for a solution? Thanks in advance.
Kind regards
Joerg

There is no ribbon for Power View in Excel 2013, you need to go to INSERT tab > Power View Reports. Once you insert a Power View Report, you will see the Power View tab.
To answer your first question about PowerPivot, It is called PivotTabel Field List and it is not under PowerPivot tab, once you click on PivotTable, you should see at the top PIVOTTABLE TOOLS with Analyze and Design tabs.
HTH!
