Visual Studio Code for Power BI default visuals
- 2 years ago
Hi PrachiJain06 ,
If you want to explore the metadata of your existing pbix files as per my knowledge it's possible.Convert that file to.zip file it will expose the internal file structure of your pbix file.

Hi PrachiJain06 ,
You may be able to get the pwoer bi visuals based on the following command, then change it to suit your needs and finally package it for use.
npm install -g powerbi-visuals-tools
pbiviz new <visual-name>
pbiviz package
Hope it helps!

Hello TomMartens , Anonymous
Thank you for the response.
As I tried, the pbiviz new <visual-name> command creates a new visual. However, I am looking to modify existing Power BI default visuals (such as Bar charts or Pie charts) by accessing their code. I intend to make minor changes where needed while preserving the existing visual functionality.
Where can I access the source code for the default Power BI visuals so that I can make minor changes? Additionally, with monthly updates, is it possible to obtain the updated code packages for these default visuals?
Thank you

Hey PrachiJain06 ,
this is not possible.
You can not modify the core visuals, you have to create your own custom visual.
