Customize Customer Service Analytics

Important

Microsoft does not support customizations made to the Power BI template app and does not provide updates once modifications are made.

Power BI is a comprehensive collection of services and tools that you use to visualize your business data. Power BI Template apps make it easy to visualize and analyze the Customer Service Analytics data with Power BI based on a standard data model. The Customer Service Analytics template app is built with a set of entities and fields that are useful for most reporting scenarios.

Dynamics 365 apps are often extended with custom fields. These custom fields don't automatically show up in the Power BI model. This article describes how you can edit and extend the report included in the template app to include custom fields in the Power BI model.

Before you customize the template app, read the information here and perform each task, as necessary.
