Here’s a full PowerShell script to generate this folder structure:
# Set the root folder where you want to create the PBIP structure
$rootPath = "C:\PBIPSample"
# Define all the folder paths
$folders = @(
"$rootPath\Report\.pbi",
"$rootPath\Report\StaticResources",
"$rootPath\SemanticModel\.pbi"
)
# Define the file paths
$files = @(
"$rootPath\Report\definition.pbir",
"$rootPath\Report\report.json",
"$rootPath\SemanticModel\definition"
)
# Create all folders
foreach ($folder in $folders) {
if (!(Test-Path -Path $folder)) {
New-Item -ItemType Directory -Path $folder -Force
}
}
# Create empty files
foreach ($file in $files) {
if (!(Test-Path -Path $file)) {
New-Item -ItemType File -Path $file -Force
}
}
Write-Host "PBIP structure created successfully at $rootPath!"
