📊 WHAT IS POWER BI?
Power BI is a business analytics tool by Microsoft. It creates a working environment suited for normal users, meaning tasks such as data extraction, cleansing, analysis and storytelling; these are made easily-accessible to citizen-users, and extendable for technical users. At face value it provides visually-stunning, interactive dashboards, but it’s built on top of so much more.

Hello bro, your videos are awesome to learn. Can you please attach all data sets that you are using in every tutorials down?

Great video. A bit unrelated, but I have a data set that has data from two different sources. The columns are identical between them, but they are laid out next to each other (horizontally). What would you think would be the best way to "stack" the rightmost set of data on top of the leftmost one, after adding a unique identifier to each side?

Thank you, Subscribed!

Thanks again, can you make a video about pivoting xml data. I'm having trouble pivoting those because usually there are nested tables in many levels and figuring that out is not easy? Results show lots of nulls or errors...

Hi Fernan. Is there a very dynamic way to pivot table rows to columns? I have hundreds of data in rows and it generates too many columns. I want to filter the table rows and then turn into columns in a virtual table with DAX. I can only manually name the columns, but I need the code to dynamically fetch the column names. Can you help me with this?
