This document aims to provide a comprehensive overview of how to effectively use dashboards in Power BI, including setting featured dashboards, adding favorites, subscribing to dashboards, and utilizing natural language queries for data analysis.
Chapitres :
-
Introduction to Power BI Dashboards
Power BI dashboards serve as a central hub for visualizing and interacting with your data. This guide will walk you through the essential features of dashboards, including how to customize your experience and leverage the platform's capabilities. -
Setting a Featured Dashboard
When you open Power BI, it automatically displays the most recently used dashboard. If you prefer a specific dashboard to appear each time you launch the application, you can set it as featured. To do this, follow these steps: - Open the desired dashboard. - Click on 'Set As Featured' in the upper navigation bar. - Confirm your choice by clicking on 'Disable Featured' if you wish to change it later. This feature allows for quick access to your preferred dashboard. -
Adding Dashboards to Favorites
Power BI allows you to add dashboards to your favorites for easy access across all workspaces. To add a dashboard to your favorites: - Click on 'Favorite' in the upper navigation bar. - The star icon will turn yellow, indicating that the dashboard has been added to your favorites. - Access your five most recent favorites by clicking the arrow next to the Favorites section. If you have more than five, select 'See All' to view the complete list. To remove a dashboard from your favorites, click the star icon either on the favorites screen or in the upper navigation bar of the dashboard. -
Subscribing to Dashboards
You can subscribe to a dashboard to monitor its activity and receive email updates. To subscribe: - Click on 'Subscribe' within the dashboard. - You will receive notifications in your inbox, ensuring you stay informed about any changes or updates. Note that you can subscribe to one dashboard at a time. -
Using Natural Language Queries
Power BI features a powerful language recognition engine that allows users to ask questions about their data using natural language. This functionality is currently available only in English. To utilize this feature: - Use the input area at the top of your dashboard to type your question. - Power BI will display prompts suggesting terms based on your data. - Click on a suggestion to view the results, which are typically displayed as a simple table or card. As you type, Power BI will assist you in formulating the right question and will interpret your input in real-time, selecting the best visualization type for your query. -
Editing Visuals Created from Queries
Once you have generated a visual from your natural language query, you can edit it at any time. To do this: - Use the Visualizations and Fields pane to make adjustments. - If you have previously pinned the visual, note that edits will not be applied until you pin the new version and remove the old one. This allows for continuous refinement of your data presentation. -
Conclusion
In summary, Power BI dashboards offer a range of features that enhance data interaction and visualization. By setting featured dashboards, adding favorites, subscribing for updates, and utilizing natural language queries, users can significantly improve their data analysis experience. Understanding these functionalities is crucial for maximizing the potential of Power BI in your data-driven decision-making.
FAQ :
How do I set a specific dashboard as featured in Power BI?

What is the purpose of the Favorites feature in Power BI?
The Favorites feature allows users to quickly access their most-used dashboards from all workspaces. You can add a dashboard to your favorites by clicking on 'Favorite' in the upper navigation bar.
Can I receive email notifications for dashboard activity?
Yes, you can subscribe to a dashboard to receive email notifications about its activity. Click on 'Subscribe' in the dashboard to enable this feature.
How does natural language processing work in Power BI?
Power BI's natural language processing allows users to ask questions about their data using conversational language. You can type your question in the designated area, and Power BI will suggest terms and display results based on your query.
What should I do if I want to edit a visual created from a natural language question?
To edit a visual created from a natural language question, use the Visualizations and Fields options. If you have pinned the visual before editing, you will need to pin it again after making changes.
