DAXdakan with Power BI Pilipinas

Episode 5 yo! Happy holidays to everyone!

In this episode, we discussed random Power BI Tips and Tricks. From usage metrics report, to decompressing Gzip files in PowerQuery, to using the EmptyCharacter, to using DAX Studio and the latest DAX view pane of Power BI to view your measures, to using the offset function in resetting cumulatives, to auto appending multiple Excel spreadsheets with non-matching column headers.

Special thanks to Daniel (Dane) Belarmino for helping with the last 3 tips. Interested in presenting and helping the community learn? Please reach out to my socials below.

Episode 4 is in the books!

For this episode, we discussed a very meaty update from the Microsoft Power BI team that is the November 2023 release. With discussions around button slicers, reference labels, and a couple of Copilot power PBI visuals. Again, thank you so much to everyone who joined the live conversation kahit via chat lang.

Sorry for the screenshare issues this episode. I fixed it in this upload (by overlapping the missing screenshare with the Teams recording).

And that's a wrap for episode 3!

This was nervous episode for me since I didn't invite an extra speaker. Solo flight and relied on the audience to take the discussion places. That said, thank you so much to everyone who joined the live conversation kahit via chat lang.

Sorry for all the webcam issues this episode. I'll prep better next time.
