Get Power BI reports from live SharePoint data
SQList makes it easy to generate Power BI reports on up-to-date SharePoint lists and libraries.
How SQList delivers easier, faster Power BI reporting
If you’ve been wondering how to import data from SharePoint to Power BI, you’ve found what you’re looking for. SQList syncs data between SharePoint lists and a SQL Server database. Simply configure your SharePoint connections and database connections within SQList, then select the lists you want to export from SharePoint.
Once you’ve exported the data you need, SQList will remain in sync with SharePoint and give limitless access to real-time data. Any updates in SharePoint will be replicated in your database.
With your SharePoint data and SQL database synced, it’s really simple to create Power BI charts from a live SharePoint list:
- In Power BI, create a connection to your database, select the SQL Server tables you need and add them using direct query. Alternatively, use SQL View for even faster results.
- Use a simple drag-and-drop tool to manage the relationships between the tables, then select the appropriate database relationship between them.
- Create a Power BI chart by selecting the relevant values from your tables.
