I need to add true write-back capability to an existing Power BI report so that authorised users can open a table visual, change specific values in-line, and have those changes committed directly to our SQL database. The model is already connected to SQL; the missing piece is the round-trip update: capturing the edits, validating them, and sending them back through a secure stored procedure or API without breaking the refresh cycle.

A working solution should:
• Provide an intuitive edit interface inside Power BI (a custom visual, Power Apps-embedded form, or another proven method).
• Handle row-level validation and basic error messaging before any commit.
• Use parameterised queries or stored procedures to push the updates safely into SQL, preserving audit fields (user, timestamp).
• Refresh or invalidate the dataset so users immediately see the updated values.

I’m interested in freelancers who can demonstrate prior experience delivering Power BI write-back or similar bi-directional data flows with SQL Server. If you’ve built something comparable—especially with custom visuals, Power Automate, or REST APIs—please highlight that work and outline how you would approach this implementation.

Deliverable: a deployed, documented solution in my tenant plus a short hand-off call to walk me through maintenance and future extension.
