GUID

Anonymous — Fri, 30 Nov 2018 10:58:03 GMT

One of the requirements of publishing custom visual to AppSource is to add GUID to pbiviz. package.

So my question is how to get this?

Can I simply generate it using for instance:

and thats all?

There's no need to generate a GUID manually. We recommend to use pbiviz new command to generate a new visual.

As a result it will also generate a unique GUID for you custom visual.

So running pbiviz new in the command prompt should generate custom visual template with embedded GUID. Right?

Correct.
