Power BI Metrics (scorecards/goals) claims to turn a metric into a collaborative, tracked dashboard: it connects to any report across workspaces, requires no code or desktop build and works with Power Automate, Power Apps and SharePoint to push or pull values. The demo shows automatic sampling (daily/weekly) that becomes a historic dataset — auto-tracked time series stored as a dataset — and has >12 actions and ~7 triggers; targets, rollups and check‑ins work but hierarchy and RLS remain limited. Pro license suffices.
