You can now diff your PowerApps apps directly in the service!!

 

Patrick LeBlanc gives you three different, easy ways to work with smaller subsets of really large datasets in Power BI Desktop without utilizing Power BI Premium or Premium Per User.

 

This may not be for everyone, but as someone who will soon be responsible for a band new Power BI rollout, I found this white paper really informative. This gives Microsoft’s best practices for enabling PowerBI in Microsoft Teams within your organization.

 

You can now set sensitivity labels at your data warehouse level (in Azure Synapse Analytics) and have them flow down hill into (i.e., be inherited by) Power BI. Set them in one place, and those information protection labels follow the data where it goes.

  • Tab key adds a tab more often.

  • They added a scrollbar.
