In our current Power BI workflow, it's challenging to identify which measures and columns are actually utilized in visuals, especially in large-scale reports with hundreds of measures. While tools like DAX Studio and Tabular Editor help manage the semantic model, they don’t provide insights into the front-end visual usage. The Proposal: Introduce a feature in Microsoft Fabric that offers a comprehensive overview of measure and column usage across all report pages. This view would list not only the elements directly placed in visuals but also those indirectly referenced (e.g., when a measure used in a visual calls another measure). Benefits: Efficiency: Quickly identify unused or redundant measures, enabling targeted model clean-up without risking report functionality. Clarity: Provide a clear mapping of dependencies, making it easier to optimize and streamline large reports. Productivity: Save time by eliminating the need for manual checks or reliance on third-party tools that only cover part of the process. With this enhancement, users managing reports with extensive models (like those with 700+ measures) can make informed decisions on model optimization, ensuring that only relevant and necessary calculations remain active. ...

Hello, In my PBI report i am not able to format Stacked column charts data labels. This problem Arise because i am using number of measures in parameters to change output on Stacked column chart, some measure should return % some Millions other K and so on. so if i select on slicer Million case button then it should show me in millions and if i choose % case button then it should show me in percent calues. In formating of stacked column chart in panel data labels - Values , if i change display units to auto then it may show in billions when i want it to be shown in Millions. so there is no chance for me to format each measure. Also i use parameter on slicer which uses measures which are based on other slicer by selected value. So in the end I have different measures for outputs then parameter's measures (changing these measures' format still do not work). So my solution is here to use bookmarks but as I have so many different outputs for this, making bookmarks is getting hard and very time consuming. So if there would be chance to add Format([measure], "0.00%") (for example this) in dax for stacked column charts then all this problems would be solved . also this format function works for tables but not for column and line charts. ADD WORKING FORMAT FUNCTION FOR CHARTS! ... View more

  Request: Please add support for shared cloud connections in Power BI Dataflow Gen1 and Fabric Dataflow Gen2. Background & Issue: Currently, Power BI Dataflow Gen1 and Fabric Dataflow Gen2 do not support shared cloud connections. This prevents the ability to change credentials for each data source or specify multiple connection points. ... View more

When I use bookmarks, I wish I could indicate the value to look for in the array for example, my lines as a value Y use the date and as columns X I use categories In the condition of the destination I would like to be able to indicate TODAY as the value of the cell, in this way when I click on the bookmark button the visual matrix automatically scrolls to the line where date = TODAY     ...

Currently, the Help & Support menu in Microsoft Fabric provides useful documentation and resources from Microsoft. However, organizations often have their own internal guidelines, best practices, or onboarding materials that would greatly enhance user experience and productivity. I propose adding an option for organizations to customize the Help & Support menu with their own content. This could include links to internal documentation, training materials, governance policies, or even direct contact options for internal support teams.  Also specific content related to the dashboard, pipeline, notebook etc would be nice to add.    Key Benefits: Improved onboarding by integrating company-specific guidance directly within Fabric. Faster issue resolution by linking to internal support or knowledge bases. Enhanced governance by ensuring users have easy access to company policies. Customization options tailored to the organization’s needs. ... View more

Request: Enable the creation of multiple personal cloud connection objects for Google BigQuery connector. Background & Issue: Currently, when using Google BigQuery connector, only one personal cloud connection object can be created, which prevents the creation of multiple dataflows based on the same source. This results in the following issues: Cannot create multiple datasauce: Trying to create more than one datasauce from the same BigQuery source causes an error due to the limitation of a single connection object.   Complicated credential management: Changing credentials for the personal cloud connection affects all semantic models using that connection, making it difficult to manage multiple datasauce.   Shared cloud connections are not supported in Dataflows: While shared cloud connections exist, Power BI Dataflow Gen1 and Fabric Dataflow Gen2 do not support them, preventing their use for efficient management of multiple dataflows. ...

As several have already suggested, it would be great to have an option to stop the button size to adjust to the number of values visible in the slicer due to the interaction of other slicers. But there is more. I mainly use the new button slicer in horizontal mode with the accent bar activated: My issue is that the size of the buttons and the length of the accent bar is the same for all, regardless of the length of the callout value text. I would love to have an option to : - automatically adjust the size of each button to the text inside ( this would also adjust the length of the accent bar) - pad horizontally the buttons left, right or center relative when the number of buttons changes du to interactions ...

Tags can be great for categorization, organization and discoverability of Fabric items.   However, it can be hard to tell what a Tag represents. For example, the tag "Sales" could represent a data product or a department. Especially if we have many tags, this can be confusing...   It should be possible to add some metadata to each tag:   Name (the tag itself) Category (e.g. Department, Cost center, Developer team, Data product) Description   This way, we could easily group and filter tags by their Category.   https://learn.microsoft.com/en-us/fabric/governance/tags-overview   https://www.reddit.com/r/MicrosoftFabric/s/GAXM99cvTd ...

Hey fabric community, I think it'd be really nice to be able to select some activities in your pipeline and, e.g. select "deactivate other activities" so only activities you want to test on remain active for testing purposes. I believe this feature would improve development and test times compared to individually activating/deactivating activities especially is the pipeline is a complex one. ... View more
