Send us a textThis week we go deep into Dataflows in Power BI.Dataflows are a method of building reusable content in the Power BI service that other users can use to help build other models. By using Power Query in the cloud, you’re able to perform transformations on one or many entities, storing those transformations as a cloud-based service. When you come to build or extend a model, the transformed entity is available, so you don’t need to recreate all of the steps to make the entity easier to use.We talk through the benefits of using dataflows and who we think they’re for. We also discuss when you wouldn’t want to use this method, relying on the “traditional” desktop tools.As we don’t see this as a replacement for Power BI desktop, at least anytime soon, we position dataflows as a tool that will benefit you in certain conditions. Documentation on dataflows can be found here https://docs.microsoft.com/en-us/power-bi/transform-model/dataflows/dataflows-introduction-self-serviceIf you already use Power BI, or are considering it, we strongly recommend you join your local Power BI user group here.To find out more about our services and the help we can offer, contact us at one of the websites below:UK and Europe: https://www.clearlycloudy.co.uk/North America: https://www.clearlysolutions.net/
