Hi All,
Currently manually testing the layout of Power BI report. Eg: size and color of the buttons, alignment, gap between the rows & columns etc
Is it possible to automate it? If yes, please give the details
Regards,
Harika
check out https://www.thebiccountant.com/2019/09/14/compare-power-bi-files-with-power-bi-comparer-tool/ which is excel power query app that retrieves report layout information from PBIX converted to PBIT (template) file. The PBIT file can also be manually unzipped using Winzip. The resulting extracted files can be inspected. The comparer tool above does this.
Hi @chinnah1
I don't think such tools exists to check these automatically.
You can use Gridlines and snap objects to grid when authoring reports in PBI Desktop to have a less painful experience.
Hi Bhavesh,
Is there any way we can export PBIX file to HTML or XMLA? so we can try access this file and look for properties of objects etc alignment ( x and y axis, font size, color etc)
Thanks,
Harika
Yes,
There is a way to read PBIX as different data format but not in XMLA or HTML. If you extract PBIX file you will get a bunch of json files with metadata of the report.
Thanks,
Mani Kishan
