Power BI Desktop is software that allows you to connect, transform, and visualize data. Let’s dig into some details. Power BI Desktop is comprised of its own components. We’ll discuss the two that are most important to a Power BI beginner: the Power BI canvas and Power Query. These are where you’ll spend the most time in your Power BI Desktop work. The Power BI canvas is where you build visualizations. The canvas can be thought of like a PowerPoint for your data. Here you use drag-and-drop functionality to pull information into different visualizations to explore your data and garner insights. This is also where you’ll apply formatting to visuals, add images, text boxes, and more. Power Query is used to import and manipulate data, essentially shaping it. In Power BI, unlike Excel, for example, you do not edit cells of data, you edit columns of data. Power Query provides options for creating custom columns based on rules you design. It lets you combine different tables of data or add values from one table to another. Everything in Power Query first begins with getting data from your sources, and Power Query supports a huge number of data sources. You want to connect to a database? SQL? Oracle? Teradata? Power Query has you covered. You want to connect to an Excel workbook to get a table? No problem. CSV? Easy. Cloud Sources? Also not a problem. Microsoft has gone out of its way to create new connectors to data sources to show that Power BI is not just to be used with other Microsoft products, but with wherever your data lives. If you become sufficiently talented at M (the programming language of Power Query), you can even, in theory, create your own custom data connectors to data sources that aren’t officially supported. Just note that this book isn’t going to discuss M or advanced DAX topics or actual programming. We’re here to help you as a Power BI beginner, and you’ll do just fine without those. | |
