Identify USED/NOT USED Columns in Personalized Visuals in Service?

Greetings community,

I have the following question, I know I can identify my [columns used] within my immediate PowerBI *.pbix file. I have enabled visual personalization on a couple data tables/matrix visuals within my PowerBI *.pbix file and published online. I have identified 98 plus un-used columns within my PBIX file via PowerBI desktop and DAX studio analysis. I wish to remove these, however I don't wish to break the possible personlization instances across the deployment that I currently have as unknown.

 

  • Is it possible: To identify columns currently used within personalized visuals from the service or online analysis services.

Hey @InterstatesQA ,

 

This is not a native item in Power BI.  However, if you install "Power BI Helper" (From Radacad) that will provide information to you about which data is being used.
