For the best storytelling you need great visuals to create reports that tell compelling stories. In Power BI there are hundreds of available visuals to help you tell your data story. The full library of Power BI visuals created by Microsoft or partners, can be accessed through AppSource, either from the web page or through Power BI.
Today, we’re thrilled to introduce a new look for the Power BI in-product store coming with August desktop release! In the store you can browse all the visuals authorized by your organization.
What visuals can you find in the store?
- AppSource visuals: more than 300 stunning visuals created by Microsoft or partners.
- Organizational visuals: private or AppSource visuals managed by your Power BI admin.
- A unified view (“All visuals”) where you get access to all visuals available in your organization in one page.
Want to see just visuals managed by your admin or AppSource visuals?
No worries! You can filter by the organizational visuals or the AppSource visuals tabs at the top.
AppSource visuals are marked with a blue shopping-cart icon. Hovering over a visual expands the description of the visual. We’ve made sure to surface editor’s picks first.
Editor’s picks are marked with a special icon. These visuals are picked by our team every month based on several criteria such as visual quality, innovation, and user experience.
What else do you get in the new experience?
- Filter by menu: Find the best visual that meets your needs by filtering by a category. Today we have 8 different categories categorizing the visuals based on the publisher selection.
