Power BI

Power BI on the wall, refreshing by itself

The report the team opens every morning, on the TV they walk past all day. Publish a report to the web in Power BI, paste the link and it plays full screen in your playlist: KPIs, charts and dashboards that reload every 30 minutes, so the numbers on the wall follow the refresh schedule of your dataset.

Free plan, no credit card required. Paid plans from €5/month. Plugin version v1.1.

Power BI on a TV screen
On the screen

What the screen shows

Reports and dashboards

Any report published to web, full screen.

Reloads every 30 minutes

The screen follows your dataset refresh without anyone pressing F5.

In a playlist

The report is a slide: between the sales board and the weather, or on a screen of its own.

On any TV

A Raspberry Pi, a Fire TV Stick or the browser of a smart TV.

Setup

How it connects

01
Publish to web in Power BI

File, Embed report, Publish to web, and copy the link.

02
Paste it in TVpilot

The Power BI plugin takes the link and shows a preview.

03
Add to a playlist

Give the slide a duration, or let the report own the screen.

Privacy

What reaches the screen

Publish to web makes the report viewable by anyone with the link, which is what lets the screen load it. Use it for reports that may be seen by everyone who sees the screen; TVpilot stores only the link.

Show it on the TV you already own

TVpilot turns the hardware you have into a managed screen: an Amazon Signage Stick with the TVpilot app, a Raspberry Pi with one command, a Fire TV Stick or Android TV, or simply the browser of a smart TV. One player URL per screen, managed from the dashboard.

FAQ

Frequently asked questions

Does it work with a report that needs a login?

No. The screen loads the report like a browser without a session, so it must be published to web. Secure embed with a login is not supported.

How current are the numbers?

The report reloads every 30 minutes and shows whatever your dataset last refreshed to.

Which screen size works best?

Design the report page in 16:9 for a landscape TV. Power BI's page size setting handles that.

Can I show several report pages?

Publish each page, or the whole report with page navigation, and add one slide per link.
