Power BI integration for AI agents that explain your dashboards
Power BI is Microsoft's business intelligence tool for dashboards, reports and data models. Finance, sales and operations teams use Power BI to track their metrics. The agent uses the Power BI REST API, with permission in your company's Microsoft tenant, to query datasets, trigger refreshes and read published reports.
What AI agents do with Power BI
A plain-language question, a real number
The director asks in Teams what the margin by region was this quarter, and the agent queries the Power BI dataset to answer. The reply comes with the filter used and a link to the dashboard.
Variance explained
When monthly revenue drops, the agent drills into the model by product, channel and customer to show where the difference came from. The manager gets the explanation, not just the chart.
A refresh that failed
The agent monitors scheduled dataset refreshes and warns the data team when one fails. That way nobody presents outdated numbers in a meeting.
Weekly executive summary
On Monday morning, the agent reads the main dashboards and writes a summary with highlights and points of attention. It goes to leadership by email with the links.

Questions about Power BI and AI agents
Does iTeam integrate with Power BI?
Yes, through the Power BI REST API. The connection uses an application registered in your company's Entra ID (formerly Azure AD), with the permissions your IT team approves.
Does the agent respect Power BI row-level security?
We configure access so the agent sees only the workspaces and datasets you enable. The permission design is reviewed with IT in the diagnosis.
Do I need Power BI Premium?
Not necessarily. Some API functions depend on the license, so we confirm what your plan allows before deployment.
