If you want to get the list of all #DAX measures plus their expressions from a #PowerBI #SemanticModel, there is a simple way to do it. You won't need any third-party tools. Just #PowerBIDesktop and #DAXQueryView

Watch my today's video to learn all about it:

You can now build the #PowerBI solution from get data and #PowerQuery all the way to #SemanticModel and #report in the web editor without needing to install #PowerBIDesktop

In today's video, I explained this and why this is very helpful for users without Windows machines

#PIVOT is a very common transformation when you bring Name-Value structured data from systems such as #CRM #ERP #Dynamics #D365, because these columns let you create a custom field, but behind the scenes, they store it as Name-Value.

The (New) card visual is a leap forward compared to the old visual and also the multi-row card visual in #PowerBI

Using #Copilot in #PowerBI has many perks and benefits. But you may wonder what the #license, #environment, #setup, and #requirements are for it?

In today's video, I explained how you can enable #MicrosoftAI copilot for #PowerBIDesktop and how can be used

Did you know that there are at least THREE major benefits of creating #calculated column in #PowerQuery instead of #DAX?

If you are creating #calculations in #PowerBI, then you must read this. I showed using a live demo how this works in my today's video;
