    📊 WHAT IS POWER BI?
    Power BI is a business analytics tool by Microsoft. It creates a working environment suited for normal users, meaning tasks such as data extraction, cleansing, analysis and storytelling; these are made easily-accessible to citizen-users, and extendable for technical users. At face value it provides visually-stunning, interactive dashboards, but it’s built on top of so much more.

    Its good to see the ABC between the A and C. Some just does not put in context.

    Hello Fernan Thanks for the wonderful content.
    Can we see the data inside the dataflow..I had created one from a Google Big query and using it in the Power BI dashboard and have some missing data.. so not sure if it is something missing at data flow and I am unable to see underneath

    Hi Fernan! 1. What if we’re working with big data and tables with millions of rows? Wouldn’t the refresh time out or not and if so, what is a solution? 2. Can we query for a certain time period or year, etc to minimize the initial data refresh?

  • @remek5758
    @remek5758 2 ปีที่แล้ว

    I'm pretty sure you can do all transformations on desktop, publish it and then use the published dataset as a source to create a report so separate model & report, I'm not sure tho if this would create another dataset when connecting to the exsisting one and only creating report?

    As You Gave Your Credentials on the Azure Database Option I have a Question here
    That in Advance option we had the option named Import and Direct Query and by default it will take Import only like in you example. If i choose Direct Query, will it work the same way ?

    in your personal opinion and experience, is it good practice to DFs as a sources? In my company all the sources are from DFs....

    I have created the dataflow by connecting with it Azure Databricks. However I can see the data in dataflows but Can't see anything when I load the data in Power Bi. What can be the reason. The same issue you are showing in the video when you load the data first time. Showing empty rows.

    Can the dataflow connect via live connection? So that I don't have to refresh the dataflow and just refresh the dataset

    • @SolutionsAbroad
      @SolutionsAbroad  2 ปีที่แล้ว +1

      I believe so! However it requires a Premium license; docs.microsoft.com/en-us/power-bi/transform-model/dataflows/dataflows-directquery

    Is it possible to use Python in the dataflow to transform data? Thanks
