Microsoft put out a really interesting white paper on how to optimize your Power Apps apps. If you build even small apps, this is a must-read.

 

As your organization grows in maturity, it will need to standardize its operations and document how it is doing what it is doing. That means, among other things, keeping components in source control, and creating automated deployment mechanisms/scripts for those components. Marc Lelijveld has an improved PowerShell script to move multiple dataflows from one Power BI workspace to another.

 

Microsoft recently released Microsoft Purview, designed to help with data governance and discovery. This will be a great tool for any admins or data security officials responsible for securing their data or for making the most effective use of an organization’s data.

 

I’ve been waiting for this video for a while: Patrick LeBlanc shows you how to use DAX Studio to write DAX queries. Love it!

 

You can now attach an entire Power BI report to a subscription email in the Service.
