Microsoft created the business intelligence and data visualization application known as Power BI. It helps users generate interactive reports and dashboards, connect to numerous data sources, and convert and model data.
Power BI (Business intelligence) is a group of software applications, tools, and connections that combine to transform various sources of data into coherent, engaging visuals, and interactive information. Excel spreadsheets and hybrid cloud-premises data warehouses are also examples of data. Power BI connects to data sources with ease, visualizes and finds the important information, then distributes it to anybody or everywhere.
We must first download the desktop version of the software from the Microsoft website before we can install Power BI Desktop.
To download Power BI for free, select the "Download Free" option.
Your computer will download the Power BI Desktop setup when you select the "Get" option.
Click "Install" once the Power BI Desktop has been downloaded.
The "Next" button must be selected in order to finish the installation.
We will be taken to Power BI's home page once the installation is complete.
Your name, the business you work for, your email address, your position title, and many other details will be requested. But close this window; these are irrelevant at this stage.
You will once again need to log into your Power BI Desktop account.
One requirement is that you can only use the official company email address. You are unable to use your email ID here.
The following window will now come up for us. In this window, we have to build our reports and dashboards.
