    Forms - Access - PowerBi —Best practices?


    I am obviously inexperienced in this, so any advice would be greatly appreciated. Basically I want a form that a user can use on their phone/tablet/computer that takes an input. That input gets stored in Access, and then eventually I want to use Access data in PowerBi Online (Online not Desktop). Ideas?

    I don't know what kind of forms you are talking about, but you can look at Microsoft forms on mobile devices. If you want to use data in PowerBi, you might consider an SQL Azure database to store the data example https://www.sharepointfocus.com/micr...mobile-device/ and https://www.mssqltips.com/sqlservert...data%20More%20 Access isn't great for working online and I don't even know if you can use it on mobile devices. You can check on https://www.microsoft.com/en-us/microsoft-365/mobile

    You can use the full (or runtime) version of Access on a Windows tablet.
    However, as Access is Windows only, it isn't included in any of the Office mobile apps.
