Configuring Fields with Perspectives for Shared Datasets in Power BI

Video by: Reid Havens

Learn how create and access perspectives for Power BI Datasets. Perspectives allow you to configure the visibility of all dataset fields per perspective to fit multiple audience needs. This is really useful for more complex models where multiple audiences would only need to see a subset of the fields contained in the master dataset. Unlock these secrets using Tabular Editor, and composite modeling. Tune in to learn more!

In this video you'll learn how to take a completed Power BI Report Model that was created using the Import method, and convert / separate the report into two distinct files for the Data Model & Report.

The biggest benefit to doing this is saving substantial time from needing to completely reproduce your report from scratch, using the Power BI Service as the data connector.
