Data Modeling in Power BI: Star Schema Explained
Star schema modelling for Power BI: what fact and dimension tables are, why visuals query them efficiently, and a real 541,909-row flat export turned into a star, exposing the problems that break relationships, from non-unique keys to missing members, plus date tables, explicit measures and related design patterns.
Power BI Field Parameters: Dynamic Reports Made Easy
Power BI field parameters let readers switch the measure or dimension a visual shows from a slicer. How to create one, use it on axes, values and slicers, edit the generated DAX safely, control hierarchy behaviour in matrices, the known limitations, and when field parameters beat bookmarks or calculation groups.
Power BI Dataflows Explained for Beginners
Power BI dataflows for beginners: what a dataflow is, why Microsoft calls Gen1 legacy and recommends Dataflow Gen2 where Fabric is available, the problems dataflows solve, from reusable preparation to protecting sources, when not to use one, how to create and refresh one, and design habits that keep them useful.
