I recently went through the adventure bakery dataset where I downloaded .bak file but I am confused how to load it into PowerBI and apply some analysis on it.
Please let me know regarding it.
Solved! Go to Solution.
Hi @amansin19
A .bak file is usually a SQL Database backup file. So I'm guessing that what you have is a backup file of the adventure bakery database, which you need to restore to SQL server to access the data.
see Restore a Database Backup Using SSMS - SQL Server | Microsoft Docs
Once you've got the SQL data restored you can connect to it with Power BI to report upon it.
hope this helps
