Decision tree visual
Hi Everyone,
I am trying to create a decision tree/map on Power BI and need help with the best tool for this.
The main aspects are: the folowing leaf appears as you select yes/no answers to original question, there are multiple level of questions, each leaf must show entire question. Somewhat like the image bellow.
FYI I'm a beginner at Power BI so please don't use acronyms....
Hi Danibuzzi,
To create an interactive decision tree or decision map in Power BI similar to your image, I recommend using a custom visual called: Hierarchy Tree by DevScopeThis visual allows you to build multi-level hierarchies that resemble a decision tree. Each node can display full text (e.g., your Yes/No questions), and the tree updates based on the data.
Please follow the below steps to achieve:
-
Open Power BI Desktop
-
Click on "Get more visuals" from the Visualizations pane (three-dot icon
...) -
Search for “Hierarchy Tree” (by DevScope)
-
Click “Add”
-
Add your data in a structure like: Lv1, lv2 etc.
Note: It supports expand/collapse, which helps with multi-level views.
🌟 I hope this solution helps you unlock your Power BI potential! If you found it helpful, click 'Mark as Solution' to guide others toward the answers they need.

Danibuzzi I checked the App Store for third party visuals that might do this but didn't find much. You might look at the Visio custom visual in the App Store.

Hi Danibuzzi
Thank you for contacting the Microsoft Fabric Community Forum.
To create a decision tree, the Hierarchy Tree visual by DevScope, as suggested by Prasanna, is indeed a solid approach. It provides a visually clear and dynamic representation of hierarchical structures and supports the overall decision logic shown in your image.
However, if you require more controlled, step-by-step interaction such as branching based on user selections like "Yes" or "No", along with a fully customizable layout the use of Buttons combined with Bookmarks in Power BI is the recommended solution. This method enables real-time branching and interactive navigation, offering a user-driven experience that closely replicates a traditional decision tree.
In some cases, a hybrid approach can also be effective leveraging the Hierarchy Tree for structured data context while using Buttons and Bookmarks for enhanced interactivity.
