  • Learning Path
  • 4 Modules

At a glance

In this Learning Path, you'll learn how to publish Power BI reports to the Power BI service. You'll also learn how to create workspaces, manage related items, and data refreshes for up-to-date reports. Additionally, implement row-level security to restrict user access to relevant data without the need for multiple reports.

This learning path can help you prepare for the Microsoft Certified: Data Analyst Associate certification.

Create and manage workspaces in Power BI

Learn how to navigate the Power BI service, create and manage workspaces and related items, and distribute reports to users.

Manage semantic models in Power BI

Semantic models are the foundation for report development in Power BI. Efficient management ensures data connectivity and improves report performance and accuracy.

Create dashboards in Power BI

Microsoft Power BI dashboards are different than Power BI reports. Dashboards allow report consumers to create a single artifact of directed data that is personalized just for them. Dashboards can be composed of pinned visuals that are taken from different reports. Where a Power BI report uses data from a single semantic model, a Power BI dashboard can contain visuals from different semantic models.

Secure data access in Power BI

Row-level security (RLS) and Object-level security (OLS) allows you to create a single or a set of reports that targets data for a specific user. In this module, you'll learn how to implement RLS by using either a static or dynamic method and how Microsoft Power BI simplifies testing RLS in Power BI Desktop and Power BI service. In addition, you'll learn how to implement OLS to restrict access to Power BI model objects.
