To create a report in the Power BI Service, go through the following steps.
Log into https://powerbi.com and select your app workspace:
Click on Dataset and select a dataset. If you do not have one, create one. For example, to create a dataset from an Excel file, select + Create ->Dataset:
Under Files, select Get:
Select Local File.
I have a customers.csv file I will upload:
The dataset will be uploaded:
Now, select Reports, and in the top right select + Create -> Report:
Select the dataset and click Create:
This will then take you to the designer, with the dataset showing on the right:
Create a visual:
Save the report:
Provide a name:
Now, clicking back on your app workspace and selecting Reports, you will see the reports have multiple options:
These include:
- View Usage Metrics
- Share
- Analyze in Excel
- Quick Insights
- View Related
- Settings
- Delete
I will go into these options in more detail in other posts.
