Understanding visuals before you build them
This course starts from a distinction that's easy to skip past: the difference between a report designer and a report consumer in Power BI. Designers have edit permissions on both the report and its underlying dataset, meaning they can open the dataset in Data view and build visuals directly in Report view — a workflow this course walks through.
Who it's for
Anyone who has some familiarity with Power BI and wants to move from viewing reports to actually building the visuals inside them — the insights a report is meant to surface.
Key takeaways
- What a visual is, and how it differs from the report or page containing it
- The designer role: edit permissions, Data view, and Report view
- How a single report page can carry one visual or many, depending on the story it needs to tell
A solid grounding for building your first real Power BI reports rather than just consuming someone else's.
About this course
Visualizations (known as visuals for short) display insights that have been discovered in the data. A Power BI report might have a single page with one visual or it might have pages full of visuals. It's important to make the distinction between report designers and report consumers. If you are the person building or modifying the report, then you are a designer. Designers have edit permissions to the report and its underlying dataset. In Power BI Desktop, this means you can open the dataset in Data view and create visuals in Report view.
