📊 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.

Great video, thanks!
Excellent explanation to connect the database through dataflow
So helpful and just what I needed! Thank you
Best video on Dataflow that I have seen so far
Very helpful! Thank you.
Thank you very much for the excellent video!
Thanks for Help!
Its good to see the ABC between the A and C. Some just does not put in context.
There are lot of Power Bi videos that does not capture this.
Thank you. very helpful
very nice
Your videos are fantastic bro
Awesome thank you
This is great, thanks for sharing!
Glad you enjoyed it!
Thanks Fernan You do a great job breaking down complex issues to very understandable concepts. You have helped me a lot
Appreciate that Merid, thanks for watching!
@@SolutionsAbroadit's possible to create power BI report from data flow directly in power BI service not in Desktop?
thanks a lot!
Thank you so much fernan, very helpful
My pleasure!
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
Thank you!! is it possible to create an automate report based on the DataFlow just created in power bi services?
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 ?
Very useful. Pls, share more videos on online Data services like Azure Data Factory and Power Bi online. :)
Hi Karthik, lots more Power BI Service videos are coming up soon, dont worry! thanks for watching!
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?
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?
Super
Can you do soemthing on refresh where the data is in a flat file and needs to be modeled into a realtional database and then updated both core data and lookup tables all needing updating
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.
in your personal opinion and experience, is it good practice to DFs as a sources? In my company all the sources are from DFs....
Hi Fernan, Is any Option to download the pbix file what you are showing in the videos?
Hi Syamala, thanks for watching! Yes of course, they're all available through my Patreon page here: www.patreon.com/posts/demo-files-52538104
Is it possible to use Python in the dataflow to transform data? Thanks
3:15- connecting to Azure SQL database dataflow
Can the dataflow connect via live connection? So that I don't have to refresh the dataflow and just refresh the dataset
I believe so! However it requires a Premium license; docs.microsoft.com/en-us/power-bi/transform-model/dataflows/dataflows-directquery
maybe you like to dive into the compute entities /linked entities and the limitations for non premium users.

Interesting suggestion, I'll have a look at covering this in the future, thanks!
