Updating Datamodel in Dataset Best Practice

Hi All,

 

What is the best practice when updating datasets with new tables/columns?  I want to be able to update only the dataset and not publish a new report.  I thought about keeping a power bi project with no reports created, just the dataset, and publish that.  However it creates a blank report page.

 

I will be using this as a shared dataset amongst other teams.

  • Yep, blank report with just a dataset, that's kind of how I've seen it done quite a bit. You just never share that report. You keep that file around just to update your data model and then you build new reports off of that data model.
