    • You can upload new content, edit existing content, or delete content as needed.

Collaborating in a Workspace:

  1. Share Content:

    • Collaborate with colleagues by sharing reports, dashboards, and datasets within the workspace.
    • Share content with specific individuals or groups, or make it available to everyone in the workspace.

  2. View Activity:

    • Monitor workspace activity to see who has accessed or interacted with the content.
    • Track changes, updates, and usage metrics to understand how the workspace is being used.

  3. Communicate with Members:

    • Use the built-in chat and commenting features to communicate with workspace members and discuss insights, findings, and updates.

Publishing to a Workspace:

  1. Publish Content:

    • Publish reports, dashboards, and datasets from Power BI Desktop to the workspace.
    • Choose the workspace where you want to publish the content during the publishing process.

  2. Update Published Content:

    • Make updates to published content in Power BI Desktop and republish it to the workspace to ensure that users have access to the latest insights.

Relationships between tables

In Power BI, relationships between tables are essential for creating accurate and insightful reports. These relationships define how data from different tables interact with each other when performing analyses or creating visualizations. Here's a detailed overview of how relationships between tables work in Power BI: Types of Relationships: One-to-one (1:1):   This is the most common type of relationship in Power BI. It signifies that one record in a table can have multiple related records in another table. For example, each customer can have multiple orders. Many-to-One (N:1):   This relationship type is essentially the reverse of a one-to-many relationship. Many records in one table can correspond to one record in another table. For instance, multiple orders belong to one customer. One-to-Many (1:N):   Power BI doesn't support direct one-to-many relationships.  One record in table can correspond to many records in another table.  Many-to-Many (N:N):  ...

SQL Fundamentals

SQL, or Structured Query Language, is the go-to language for managing relational databases. It allows users to interact with databases to retrieve, manipulate, and control data efficiently. SQL provides a standardized way to define database structures, perform data operations, and ensure data integrity. From querying data to managing access and transactions, SQL is a fundamental tool for anyone working with databases. 1. Basics of SQL Introduction : SQL (Structured Query Language) is used for managing and manipulating relational databases. SQL Syntax : Basic structure of SQL statements (e.g., SELECT, INSERT, UPDATE, DELETE). Data Types : Different types of data that can be stored (e.g., INTEGER, VARCHAR, DATE). 2. SQL Commands DDL (Data Definition Language) : CREATE TABLE : Define new tables. ALTER TABLE : Modify existing tables. DROP TABLE : Delete tables. DML (Data Manipulation Language) : INSERT : Add new records. UPDATE : Modify existing records. DELETE : Remove records. DQL (Da...
