Quick Insights

‎02-25-2016 02:53 PM

I notice after publishing a PBIX workbook to the cloud service, there is a dialogue popup saying "get quick insights".  But once you dismiss this dialogue, how can you "get quick insights"?  I don't find the option anwhere else.

@MattAllington It is only available on some datasets (mainly those you upload, not direct query or live connection I believe) - but it should display when you click the elipses next to the dataset if it is available.

For what is a fantastic feature, it would be nice if the method to access it was placed more prominently on the screen.

 

And when you do find a particularly good one to pin to the dasboard.  The text should go with it.
