Publish interactive Office 2010 PivotChart to web, without Sharepoint? - web

Does anyone knows a way to publish my PivotTables and PivotCharts made in Excel, Access, or PowerPivot 2010 to a web page and maintain the interactivity?
I know this was possible in Excel 2003, but cant find a way to do the same in Excel 2010 without having to use Sharepoint and Excel Services.
Any suggestion?
Thanks

In terms of PowerPivot based files this isn't possible.

The cheapest and easiest option would be to put the dataset in Azure or Azure Marketplace and have them query the data directly via the PowerPivot plugin. Other than that you can not maintain the interactivity of the pivot chart online. It's not part of your question but I would suggest taking a look at a http://www.highcharts.com/ or http://d3js.org/ implementation. You can interact with an example here:

If you get to the point where you can justify the cost of having powerful reports online you can take a look at http://spotfire.tibco.com/demos at our last company we had so many requests for pivot tables and their charts to be accessible online that we ended up having to buy a Spotfire license :/
Good luck!

Embedding Microsoft Power BI into Liferay

I am currently doing a computer science degree. As part of my industry project for my university, I am developing a BI solution for a client. Having gone though the project I'd like to develop it using Liferay. Does anyone know whether it is possible to embed Microsoft Power BI into Liferay.
The ideal scenario is that the client logs in to a Liferay portal and views power bi dashboards on the portal. Can this be done, is it possible? If so how can this be achieved?
If not what are the alternatives?
I would appreciate your help.
By the way I have to use power bi as part of the project
Well, yes, of course it's possible. What do you need to do? It depends. You can use an iframe immediately or rewrite the reports UI in a portlet. You can even write the whole administrative UI as a portlet. These options were all in increasing amounts of effort you'll have to put into it (and frankly, rewriting all of the UI would be ridiculous, I don't expect you to do this).

Options for BI to be integrated in any other applications, its API (might be: iframe, distinct media - e.g. images, JSON representations of reports etc)
The amount of seamless integration you need - e.g. is an extra click accepted? How many resources (time) do you have to implement the integration?
This was meant to be a comment, but it's too long for that.
PowerBI.com, Power BI for Office 365, or some of the on premises offers like Power View in SharePoint 2013?
For www.powerbi.com, embedding dashboards is something we're looking at. You can vote for it at the link below to keep updated when it is available.

For Power BI for Office 365, you can embed excel workbooks that contain Power View sheets in web pages, though if you're building an applications this may not be ideal.
Let us know more of the details you're looking for.
Appreciate your using Power BI.

2 Way Sync Excel 2013 Spreadsheet and Sharepoint 2013 List

I'm trying to do a 2-way sync with an excel spreadsheet and a list on my sharepoint 2013 online public site. Research has told me that the best approach, without using 3rd party solutions, would be to use Access 2013, and to first sync the excel spreadsheet to the access database (I've done this). Next would be to sync the Access database with a sharepoint list. When I try to do this, it publishes the table as a list, but if any changes are made to the excel spreadsheet, it's not updated on the sharepoint list. Is there a specific way this needs to be done? I wasn't able to find any good documentation on this, especially for 2013 versions.
Thanks for any help!

how to show graphs on sharepoint MOSS site

I want to show graphs on sharepoint site .how to do this ?
Check out the ChartPart onb Codeplex.com.
Check out my answer to this question: SO Question, it describes the MS Carthing COntrols You need .NET 3.5 SP1 though.
Depending on whether the origin of the chart is excel, but if you have excel services which is part of the Enterpise edition of MOSS 2007, you can upload the excel document to a library and then use one of the excel webparts to show the worksheet which contains the graph. You will benefit from people being able to update the excel document within sharepoint and the chart being updated automatically
try using http://www.dundas.com/Components/Products/Chart/SharePoint/index.aspx - They are amazing and give great results.
You can also download a trial version!
HTH
You can try VfS. Watch this video tutorial "Create Chart in SharePoint Site in few clicks".
Visifire offers nice easy Chart WebPart Designer for SharePoint 2007 and 2010.

How do I show graphs and KPIs from an OLAP cube in Sharepoint?

I need to display content from an OLAP cube in Sharepoint. This could be done using PerformancePoint Server but unfortunately Microsoft has decided to drop support for that product some time ago. Their plan is to integrate some of the functionality directly into the next version of Sharepoint instead. The problem is that I can't wait that long and it would not be wise to base the solution on abondoned software.
How can I solve this, should I use Excel Services and/or how can I do this?
How would you solve it?
With regards

One resource that I have found useful is this - and yes i would use Excel Services
