Study Notes
Shared Datasets Use Cases
- Simplified Data Preparation: Shared datasets allow users to access already transformed and modeled data, saving time and effort on data preparation.
- Workspace Sharing: Datasets saved in a new workspace automatically share with other new workspaces.
- Dataset Quality: Endorsed datasets (Promoted and Certified) indicate high quality and suitability for other developers.
- Permissions Control: Owners can manage access permissions controlling users' actions (e.g., Read, Build) on a dataset.
- Collaboration: Shared datasets facilitate collaboration by centrally providing pre-processed data to report and dashboard builders.
Template Apps Use Cases
- Pre-packaged Reports/Dashboards: Template apps provide pre-built reports and dashboards accessible from AppSource.
- Data Connection: Users can connect a downloaded template app to their own data sources for use with their data.
- Sample Data Exploration: The template app can be explored by users with sample data included in the download.
- Customization Options: Template apps include a customization option enabling users to modify reports/dashboards or study their construction.
- Distribution: Developers can distribute template apps within organizations or publish them on AppSource.
Power BI Content Viewing Options
- Publishing: Sharing reports and dashboards by emailing links, which consumers install in their Shared With Me page.
- Apps: Packaging reports into apps to distribute allowing download in workspaces, sending links, or posting on websites.
- Exporting: Printing reports, exporting data (Excel, CSV), or entire reports to PowerPoint or PDF. Includes storage options like OneDrive for Business.
- Subscriptions: Setting up email notifications for content updates.
- Alerts: Receiving email alerts when data values reach predefined thresholds.
- Comments: Sharing comments on dashboards and reports for collaborative interaction.
Power BI Report Filters and Slicers
- Data Filtering: Filters are used for specifying displayed data in reports, not dashboards.
- Filter Types: Report-wide, page-wide, visual-specific, and drill-through filters.
- Slicers: Visualization acting as a filter, allowing users to select data segments with checkboxes (e.g., for different executives).
- Filters Pane: Allows designers to create, apply, and manage filters. Contains sections for visual-specific, page-wide and report-wide filters.
- Advanced Filtering: Enables complex filter logic (e.g., Boolean operators) for reports.
- Filter Default Settings: Reports maintain user modifications in their accounts, even between devices.
- Reset Button: Allows returning filters to initial settings.
- New Filter Pane Design: The new design offers improved formatting, hiding/showing filters, and locking filters from modification.
