Help downloading sample data

[Anonymous]

Hi all,

I need to download a sales analysis based sample .pbix to practice on Dax. I cannot upload anything to my SQL Server so I need data I can access from my company firewall etc. Ideally local data. I have tried downloading the samples for Contoso and others but they are all pointing on external database that apparently I cannot access.

Is there anything ready maybe with excel base data?

You can try to use the option "Try a sample data set" directly from the PBI desktop :

Or download csvs from this the linked sites :

Thanks @Ritaf1983 , but I was looking for a dataset (now called semantic model) with all the separate tables you find in a sales analysis dataset: Sales, Clients, Products, etc.

Any guess on where I can find that?

Hi @Anonymous

Northdiwnd with separated tables

P.S
You can also take a big table and split it into facts and dims,
It is a great data modeling exercise.
