How to do version with Power BI
Queries:
- Is there a better practice for Power BI version control to enable tracking of continuous iterations and rollback (error correction) in the same file(desktop) or using the online service?
- How can you write reusable measures (Dax) that can be used in other projects?
Background:
I recently finished my first power by project. I worked remotely with another colleague and we ended up with 16 versions of the Power BI dashboard due to testing and rollback of features. I would like to avoid making different version to track developmental milestones.
Ultimately, I'm looking to use DevOps principles with Power BI.
Thanks
Open the Power BI Version Control app.
Click the Check Reports Out button on the Home Screen.
This will list all PBIX and PBIT files in the Checked Out Reports folder. Select the reports you wish to Check-In in the Check Out Reports column.
Make sure to add comments.
Click Check-in reports button.Hope this helps

I searched for Power BI Version Control app and it looks interesting, but don't believe that our IT would allow us to install it.
Hi willjoe2442
Our I IT team is still reviewing the software for security.
So for now we are following version control as shown in this video. https://youtu.be/i3s9isKKdDs
