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.

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 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 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.

Hi Venugopal,
Please refer to the blogs below and see if it works for your case:
http://sharepointerthilosh.blogspot.com/2013/10/sharepoint-2013-reports-unexpected.html
http://badalratra.wordpress.com/2014/03/13/error-the-content-type-texthtml/
To create a Power View report, start Power View from a
data model file in SharePoint Server 2010 or 2013. Models, or connections to models, can be in a SharePoint Server document library or in a
Power Pivot Gallery, a special purpose SharePoint Server document library that provides rich preview and document management for published Microsoft Excel workbooks that contain data models.
Please refer to the links below to get report in Power View in SharePoint server:

How to create and export a sharepoint list connection file to excel connection file library from power pivot?

Hi All,
I'm new to SharePoint and Power BI.
I've to use share point 2013 lists to create power view reports. For that, I need to create Power Pivot in Excel 2013.
I'm fine with the above. We normally take a data feed of a list and create connection to that. We need to create a connection file (.odc) and export it into a excel file connection library of Share point. The connection to be made to share point list. The
power pivot will be having multiple related lists.
How can I create a connection file which is referring to share point list
Please suggest.
Regards,
Julie

Hi All,
Finally, I could find the answer for this question after a long search.
First of all, open a new excel file in server.
Data-->From other connection-->From data connection wizard-->data feed-->Location of the data feed-->
http://sharepointsite/sitename/_vti_bin/ListData.svc
-->next-->select the lists which you need-->next-->only create connection-->properties--->export connection file
-->ok
The connection file has been created and .odc file exported to the specified location.
Open power pivot and check the connection in existing connections.
Exported file has to be uploaded in Excel file connection library of share point 2013. So that you can refer the same in this excel file when you upload it into share point.
Regards,
Julie

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?

Hi,
If you are still facing the same issue follow the below steps:
1) Access PWA from your server
2) Download any built in report from Reports section (in your case
Project Server - Issue Data Project
Server - Risk Data) to your server.
3) Open report in excel, go to Data->Connections in Workbook Connection dialog open "Project Server - Issue Data" go to properties.
4) Here select tab 'Definition' under connection file remove tick for 'Always use connection file'
5) Tweak your connection string & tick save password option
6) Excel Services: Authentication Settings (suit yourself)
Now, save & publish on PWA, hope it works :)
