[From Wrike] New Wrike Connector for Microsoft Power BI ๐Ÿ“ˆ

Hi Community,

Would you like to create reports and charts based on how many tasks there are in your Microsoft account? Or to see in a visual layout the statuses of all those tasks at a glance? These options and many more are now available thanks to the newly released Wrike connector of Microsoft Power BI! ๐Ÿ“ˆ

Note: This connector is available in the May 2023 release of Power BI Desktop and also in the Power BI Service.ย 

Available for Entreprise Pinnacle accounts, the connector allows you to use Wrike as a data source for Microsoft Power BI with only a few clicks: the connector is available directly in Power BI Desktopโ€™s Get Data options. After authenticating into Wrike through the connector, you will see three main sections to select datasets from: โ€œAccountโ€, โ€œShared with meโ€, and โ€œSpacesโ€.

You can find out further on how to pull Wrike data in Power BI in this step-by-step guide:

The data objects available through the Wrike Power BI Connector include projects, tasks, custom fields, finance fields, custom item types, timelogs and many more ๐Ÿคฉ You can find the full list here.

Based on this data, you can create updated reports and multiple charts to visualize how your work is progressing. The range of charts includes bar and column charts, pie charts, doughnut, funnel and gauge charts, and also line charts, among several other options. You can also create multi cards and single cards, which you will find especially useful when needing to count a large number of tasks on your account or Space.


Already excited about the possibilities? Please, share your comments and any questions you might have below ๐Ÿ‘‡

Happy reporting! ๐Ÿ“Š

Was direct here. I really like and produced a view but in Reports export Completed date is available when a status is complete. Is this available as would like to turn our reports into PowerBI connected refreshes.ย

We upgraded to an Enterprise tier last year to get BI Export which isn't really a clean solution.ย  I can't understand how this isn't included with Enterprise Standard.ย ย

This is excellent! With this connector, would it be possible for these reports to update automatically at a fixed interval? This functionality could enable use cases where reports and charts are displayed on large screens in an office building.

Nevermind! I just read the docs: "Such published reports can also be scheduled for auto-refresh."

I've been waiting for a while to see this. So happy!

I'm bummed you can't use this with the Enterprise Standard plan.

I hope Wrike considers adding this to the Enterprise Standard plan as Pinnacle is just not feasible for some businesses.

I agree with Alexus Reyes, but I'm sure it has something to do with data storage.ย 
It would be nice to see a use case for downloading data to Excel in a way that would be immediately useable in Power BI.
