How to build blocks of Power BI?

Building Blocks of Power BI

There are five building blocks, such as Visualization, Reports, Dashboards, Datasets, and Tiles .

Building Blocks of Power BI

  • Visualization: The visualization is a type of chart or visuals that built by the Power BI designers. These visuals display the data from the datasets and report.
    For example, line graph, pie chart, bar charts, and other graphical representation of the source data on a top geographical map, etc.
  • Reports: A report is a collection of one or more pages of interactive visuals, text, and graphics that together make a single report.
    For example, state, city report, sales by country, profit by-products report, logistic performance report, etc.
  • Dashboards: Dashboard is a single layer presentation of multiple visualizations with interactive visuals, text, and graphics. A dashboard collects the most important metrics, on one screen, to tell a story or answer a question. The dashboard content comes from one or more datasets and one or more reports.
    For example, pie charts, bar charts, and geographical maps.
  • Datasets: The dataset is a collection of data which is used to create its visualization in Power BI.
    For example, Oracle or SQL servers tables and excel sheets.
  • Tiles: The tile is a single visualization in the report or on the dashboards.
    For example, the pie chart in reports or dashboard.
