Visualizations in Power BI - Full Tutorial

✅ Download the free course demo files to follow along

Power BI is a powerful Business Intelligence software that provides interactive visualizations, and in this video tutorial, we will explore visualizations in Power BI as this is what Power BI is all about.

We start this tutorial off by giving you tips on how to look at data to decide what is of importance to show in a visualization. We then talk about the difference between a Table and a Matrix Table visualization and the formatting options in Power BI. We teach you how to apply formatting to visualizations including applying conditional formatting. You will also learn how to create Column Charts, Line Charts, and Map Charts in Power BI.

The second half of this tutorial will teach you how to use Gauge Visualization and Card Visualization in Power BI, which are commonly used to emphasize key report metrics. We round off this video by showing how to add Power BI Slicers and Filters and which design elements you can change in your report such as fonts, colors, etc.

We've even included downloadable course files so you can follow along in this course. This will help you put what you are learning into practice, and master visualization in Power BI.

This is literally the best visualisation tutorial I've come across! So precise and to the point! I'm sitting in the gym, working out and I'm still able to understand each part so easily! Thank you so much for this, you made my work easier.❤❤❤

What a masterpiece of teaching and generous education 🥰

[thoughtfuldog]

This appeared on my feed and it’s one the best PowerBI tutorials I’ve watched and pitched at the right level (no DAX, no technical jargon or complex measures). Thank you

[ProfJohnStats]

Superb!!! The VERY BEST I have seen on PBI !! Congratulations to the lady!

[StopWhining]

Excellent video, and can see how someone with no design training could waste lots of time playing with formatting options to yield reports that nobody could understand.

You don't have to click the Format Painter for each visual. If you double-click it, it'll stay on and you can apply the format to as many visuals as you want in one go. Just a hint... In fact, this works everywhere where you find the button (all Office apps).
