Annotate Power Bi visuals in PowerPoint
Speed up your reporting,
and improve your data storytelling,
with the new 'data annotations'.
The March 2025 Power Bi upgrade includes data annotations for Power Bi visuals in PowerPoint.
Embedding Power Bi visuals in PowerPoint is one of those features which is still massively underused but has a lot of potential to improve your productivity:
1. Create visuals only once
2. Update charts automatically
3. Interact with data during your presentation
And now we can also add annotations!
• Annotate data directly on your chart.
• Provide additional context to your audience.
• Put focus on the data that matters.
If you haven't used Power Bi within PowerPoint you should definitely give it a try.
A use case might be your monthly board presentations:
1. Create a template once.
2. Refresh the data.
3. Add your insights.
4. Done!
No more fiddling with charts in Excel and PowerPoint.
No more snipping and copy / pasting.
No more version stress.
Go from hours to minutes.
