Find Out How Many Data Sources are connected to Power BI

Hello,

 

Does any one know how I can report on the number of data sources are used in Power BI? So what I want to know is all the data sets in Power BI what is their source of this data?

 

Is there a place where I can easily go see this information with out click through all the data sets? What I want to do is to provide this information to my information architect to make the data more available and standardize it.

Need Help

    Hi Anonymous 

    I think you want to find which dataset the report data come from in Power BI Service.

    You can try lineage view in Power BI Service.

    Every workspace, whether new or classic, automatically has a lineage view. You need at least a Contributor role in the workspace to view it. 

    It will show lineage for any artifact.

    Here I show the linage of Dateset( onedrive), you see I use it to build two reports.

    For more details: Data lineage
