Power View in Office 365 vs. Power View in SharePoint
Hi all,
I am trying to find the best method to get PowerView reports into Dynamics AX. So far, I've simply created a form as ActiveX and navigated to the link to the excel file, but this is not desirable. I read that it is possible to have them embedded into Role
Centers/Enterprise Portal, but I need to have PowerView in "SharePoint" mode.
What are the differences between SharePoint mode and Office 365? Is there no way to export the PowerViews to PowerPoint or as Menu Items from Office 365?
Also, any information or tips on integrating PowerViews/Power BI with Dynamics AX would be great!
Thanks,
Mark

Hi Mark,
Power View comes in two different flavors:
1. Power View as an Excel add-in (free with Excel 2013 Professional Plus)
If you have Office 365 with Power BI enabled, you can create visualizations(Charts etc) in Excel using Power View and publish them to a Power BI site which lets you share, view, and interact with reports. At the time of this posting, there is no way
to export a Power View Report (created in Excel) to Power Point.
2. Power View, as a Reporting Services(SSRS) Add-in for SharePoint Server(Enterprise Edition).
If you don't have Office 365(with Power BI), you can still publish Power View reports(created in Excel) to an on-premise SharePoint site.You can definitely
Export a report from Power View in SharePoint to PowerPoint
Integration with Dynamics AX - There are several options for integration and here is one of them.
1. Use Power Query to Discover all the data you need from Dynamics AX (SQL Server database),
Transform and Mashup the data. Create a data model in Power Pivot and then use Power View to create your visualizations and publish them to either an on-premise SharePoint environment or to a Power BI site in Office 365.
I have a Dynamics AX client and they wanted to use Power View. They have a Data Warehouse built on top of their AX database and an SSAS cube (Multidimensional) on top of their Data Warehouse. Since they don't have an Enterprise instance of SharePoint, we
extracted all the data from the Data Warehouse into a Power Pivot model, then used Power View(the Excel add-in) to create the visualizations.
Please take a look at this technet article
Microsoft Dynamics AX integration with Power BI for Office 365
Hope this helps. Please let us know if you have any questions.

Are all features available in Power BI for office 365 available in On-Premise Excel, SQL server etc
Thanks
NateNo. The tools used to create Power BI reports are available in the on premises versions:
Power Query
Power Pivot
Power Map
Power View
To take advantage of these in a PowerBI site, or to use Q&A you need a subscription to Office365 with a PowerBI license. -
No Power BI for Office 365 License???
Hi,
we have installed the free Power BI SharePoint App. We have assigned the free license to two users.
It now says correctly that we have 999998 of 1000000 licenses left. So far, so good :-)
But...when I click "Power BI" in the left navigation pane, the App seems to start but then:
"Keine Power BI für Office 365-Lizenz
Sie besitzen anscheinend keine Benutzerabonnementlizenz für Power BI für Office 365."
Which means in english: "No Power BI for Office 365 License...You don't have a user subscription license for Power BI for Office 365".
But we do have assigend the license to these two users!
Anybody have an idea what I can do?
We would even pay for Power BI but there is no link where we can buy the full license?
Thanks
MalteI have the same problem as Jamie
I added Power BI to my E4 subscription. However, when trying to access Power BI link on the left side of the screen, i get "No Power BI for Office 365 License" ask your admin.
I'm one of the office 365 admins and have a license assigned to myself already. I have deleted the app and re-added it with no luck so far.
Can you help please and suggest how to fix this?
Thank you so much in advance for your help -

Not received promotional code when registered for "Microsoft Power BI for Office 365 preview!"
Hi,
I have registered for "Microsoft Power BI for Office 365 preview!" and received the welcome mail from Microsoft Office 365 <[email protected]>
But their is nowhere mention of any promotional code
Further as per the steps given in the welcome mail I created the unique tenant for Power BI and now provisioning Power BI for office 365. Here as per the snapshot provided in the provisioning document I am not able to see the specific license
i.e "Microsoft Power BI for Office 365" which I have to assign to my tenant. Instead I see the License "Microsoft Office 365 Plan E3". Is this acceptible?
Further i have assigned this license (Microsoft Office 365 Plan E3) and added Power Bi app to the Site Contents
Now when I try to open Power Bi app to open the reports I have uploaded to office 365, I get the following error
*********Error**************
No Power BI for Office 365 License
Looks like you do not have a user subscription license for Power BI for Office 365.
Want to find out what you're missing?
Learn more about Power BI for Office 365.
Here are a few ideas:
Please ask your Office 365 admin to assign you a user subscription license for Power BI for Office 365.
If you have a different account, try signing in with that account.
It will be great help if anyone can help me resolve this issue?
Thanks in Advance!

How to deploy PowerPivot/Power BI in Office 365 SharePoint Online?
We have several users on Office 365 (E2 Subscription) who have Excel 2013 and PowerPivot on their individual computers who would like to place PowerPivot apps on SharePoint for users without Excel to view.
How can we do this?Your users can do this now if interactivity isn't required. If it is, you'll need to move up to an E3 plan. If your models exceed 10 MB, and you want interactivity, you'll need Power BI licenses for your users.

Office 365 Excel Power Query Preview Problem Signing In -- Appears Corrupted, Please Repair
The image below shows that Excel "thinks" I'm signed in with an organizational account that has Power BI Preview, yet Power Query from Excel doesn't think I'm signed in and says it's corrupted when I try to sign in. I was trying to use the
online search to find the odata feed that I have set up for Office 365 Power BI Preview. So, alternatively, when I go to other data sources and specify the odata feed that is set up properly and available, Microsoft says "access forbidden".
Clearly, account credentials aren't being passed correctly. I have read other posts on this forum and have verified that I have the latest Power Query Preview, that I only use lower case letters to sign in, that IE cache is clear. I have repaired,
uninstalled and re-installed Power Query Preview multiple times, with no change in this behavior.
Any ideas?
NeilZarar, yes, tried that, and much more.
Even though Power BI is supposed to navigate through firewalls, I believe we are having firewall problems.
I need to ask our network people to open up for Microsoft on this one, but there's no good information out there on the sites/IPs required to make Power BI Preview work.
In addition, the complexity that comes with using domain credentials, Microsoft Account (live) credentials, and Organizational credentials (O365) on the same computer at various times of the day complicates matters.
That said, I can take my machine to my home network and get as far as attempting to connect to the odata feed I set up -- except the data source is on a computer with an internal IP and Power Query cannot resolve the local computer name -- i.e. x.x.local.
So now, I have two questions:
1. What IPs need to be unblocked to make Power BI work?
2. Is there a way to get the odata feed to work when the datasource is on an internal network (the datasource is working and tests okay from Power BI Admin -- but does not resolve the machine name when coming in through Excel via the odata feed from an off-site

How to visualize the power map in office 365 or share point 2013??
Hi,
I have designed the power map within excel.
Here power map can be able to saw within excel, but i need to visualize to web browser like share point 2013 or office 365.
Anyone know how to display it?
Thanks,
RamuWith Power Map you have the ability now to create a video of the tour when you are done. You can then use this video file to share the tour in SharePoint, in Power Points, YouTube, etc.
http://office.microsoft.com/en-us/excel-help/export-a-power-map-tour-as-a-video-HA104106952.aspx
At this point this is the only way to share the tours unless you open up the Excel file and launch Power Map. -
Ical office 365 delegate calendar view
Hi
People in my company have combination Mavericks 10.9.5 and Office 365 small business.
We are using Exchange sync account.
People share calendars (read only) and some users have own calendar and about 15 calendars other colleagues (from delegation).Plus some Google, iCal etc calendars.
Mostly happens that when user have selected own calendar, 2-3 other people in iCal then after restart/sleep Mac show iCal ALL calendars after.
People are very angry becouse thay have to change selected calendar
Is it some way to fix selected calendars ?
ThanksI've been battling this ever since upgrading to Mountain Lion. One moment I can fiddle with it and it works. The next day, it may quit syncing. Or, it may go a month or two before melting down again. It's driving me nearly insane. Apple truly needs to address this. Outlook is a dog with fleas that can't hunt for crap. I loaded it in desperation. It *****. Please Apple, fix iCal syncing to Exchange!

Deactivate Sandbox Solution in Office 365 with no access to SharePoint UI
I have a sandbox solution custom action deployed to my Office 365 site. The custom action is a simple ScriptLink that points to a script. After I activated the feature, every page in the entire Site Collection comes back as a blank page. Every page. Site
Settings, Solutions, List Settings, pages, lists, views.. you name it.. it's a blank page. The entire page contents is:
<html><head><META HTTP-EQUIV="Content-Type" CONTENT="text/html; charset=utf-8"><meta name="Robots" content="NOINDEX " /></head><body></body>
<script type="text/javascript">
var gearPage = document.getElementById('GearPage');
if(null != gearPage)
gearPage.parentNode.removeChild(gearPage);
document.title = "Error";
</script>
</html>
Is there anyway for me to deactivate the Custom Action Sandbox Solution without having access to the SharePoint UI? There doesn't seem to be a PowerShell cmdlet to deactivate a feature and I'm quickly running out of ideas.
thanks for the help!

http://www.SharePointHillbilly.comHi,
According to your post, my understanding is that you want to deactivate a Sandbox solution feature in Office 356 without accessing to SharePoint UI.
We can enable or disable a feature from PowerShell using Client Object Model in SharePoint Online.
Here is an example for your reference:

Office 365: Prgramtically sync Calendar with SharePoint team site calendar
Hello everyone,
I need to sync office 365 Calendar with SharePoint team sites Calendars. We have SharePoint online site which having multiple sub sites, each sub site has a calendar control and we need calendar controls need to be sync with the outlook calendar available
on top bar of office 365.
We need to do it programmatically as we have more then 200 hundred sub sites, please guide me on this that how it is possible using developer app or PowerShell commands.I think it might help to clarify what you mean. When you say "Office 365 Calendar", what you really mean is the Calendar associated with whomever is logged in, stored in Exchange. When you see the "Calendar" link in the little bar at the top of the page,
that's actually just a link to the Outlook Web Access calendar for a particular user's calendar stored in the Office 365 Exchange server. It's exactly the same calendar that would show up if a user had Outlook installed on their local computer and opened it
up and looked at the calendar.
That being said, you aren't going to want to synch every calendar in your whole SharePoint site with a single user's calendar. I think there are a couple approaches for you:
Create a calendar overlay in SharePoint, which displays other calendars on the current calendar view. Unfortunately, there's a limit as to how many calendars you can do this for, it's far less than 200.
Allow users to create calendar overalys in Outlook. This is the same idea as what you're doing in SharePoint, except users are doing this within Outlook. Again, adding 200 overlays isn't practical.
You can try creating an additional company calendar in Exchange that's not tied to a particular user, but then you'll have to run a timer job to keep the Outlook calendar in synch with the SharePoint calendar. This is a lot more cumbersome than just displaying
the SharePoint calendar, since you're physically copying events over to the Outlook calendar. If you do that, you personally are responsible for keeping the two calendars synched up, rather than just displaying an Exchange calendar in SharePoint, or displaying
a SharePoint calendar in Outlook.
You might looking into third party tools such as
http://www.boostsolutions.com/calendar-rollup-feature-list.html. (I haven't tried that product, it just looks like it might be the type of thing to check out.
If I have any advice, I would recommend as much as possible creating views of calendars, not actually trying to synch data, unless you're doing a one-way synch. (Synching calendar data can be a little bit difficult because you have reoccurring events to
take into account.)

Power point problems: Office 2011 in presenter view
When I put my presentation in presenter view, it will not show me the current slide and the next slide, only the current slide (in a very small window). I've clicked every button possible and can't seem to figure it out? It worked just fine for awhile but now multiple presentations are doing the same thing. This does me no good if I can't see the next upcoming slide! Greg
