Use this interactive demo to learn how to embed a live Power BI report inside a PowerPoint slide.

Quick summary

You can embed a live Power BI report directly into a PowerPoint presentation using the Microsoft Power BI add-in, available through the Add-ins tab. Once inserted, the report remains interactive and updates in real time without leaving PowerPoint.


Steps

  1. Launch PowerPoint and select your desired presentation.
  2. Go to the Add-ins tab in the PowerPoint ribbon.
  3. In the search bar, search for Microsoft Power BI.
  4. Select Microsoft Power BI from the results and click Add.
  5. In Power BI, click Copy to copy the data link for your report.
  6. In the empty field in PowerPoint, paste the URL from Power BI.
  7. Click Insert to embed a live, interactive Power BI report inside your slide.

📌 Why this matters

Embedding a live Power BI report in PowerPoint lets presenters share real-time data insights without switching between applications or manually updating static screenshots. The Microsoft Power BI add-in for PowerPoint keeps dashboards fully interactive during presentations, allowing audiences to filter, drill down, and explore data on the spot. This integration is essential for business analysts, sales teams, and executives who need accurate, up-to-date figures in every slide deck. It eliminates the risk of presenting stale data and dramatically reduces the time spent maintaining report-heavy presentations.
