(Livestream Replay) Create ANY Visual in Power BI with the HTML VizCreator - with Pascal Kiefer

ABSTRACT πŸ“„

Every Power BI developer has come across business requirements which were impossible or difficult to achieve using the Power BI core visuals. The HTML VizCreator custom visual puts an end to this!

Learn from the creator of the visuals that even with little to no HTML knowledge, you can create all sorts of custom visualizations. The combination of DAX and HTML will give you a ton of new possibilities and can also help to improve report performance. With the HTML VizCreator visuals you can create custom KPI cards, highly complex tables, dynamic text boxes but also custom bar/column charts, any kind of infographics and many other elements.

One of the many 5-star-reviews on AppSource is titled β€œThe Do-Everything Visual!” which is exactly right, we can really use these visuals for nearly anything. In this hands-on session, we will show how to create different elements from scratch without the need to write any HTML code.

As a bonus, we will also show how to make phone calls directly from a Power BI report.

(Livestream Replay) Governing Sensitive Data Using Microsoft Purview - with Anton Fritz

ABSTRACT πŸ“„

In today's fast-paced world, organizations face numerous data protection regulations, such as GDPR, HIPAA, and CCPA, that require them to securely store and share sensitive data. As Power BI increasingly becomes the primary platform for sensitive business data in many organizations, there is a growing need for centralized governance tools that can help organizations identify where sensitive data is stored, classify and label it in accordance with their data protection policies, and protect it as it moves between systems.

In this talk, we will explore the various governance capabilities available for Power BI with Microsoft Purview solutions, including auditing user activities, enabling data owners to label sensitive content with Information Protection sensitivity labels (the same labels used in the Office product family), helping users to be aware of the sensitivity of the reports they consume, and automatically classifying and protecting data as it moves across Synapse, SQL, Power BI, and Office. Additionally, we will discuss how these solutions can help organizations discover and understand their data through the use of data Catalog and data Map
