    Thanks AlexisOlson! I researched PBI Tools, and it looks cool, but in the end, I found PowerBI deployment Pipelines meet my requirement to have Source Control within PowerBI:

    - We have a history of changes

    - We can see the differences between old and new report

    - All changes must be approved to move from one stage to another (dev>test>prod)

     

    The feature that I don't know if we have is the rollback to a previous version, but I think this saves us a lot of time.

Thanks for sharing this! Why are you not using the Deployment Pipelines? And what do you mean with "TE Folders"?

The Tabular Editor folder structure is covered in the series.

 

Deployment pipelines didn't exist when I first started doing version control on Power BI files and I haven't had the need to set up that formal process yet. It would be nice in theory but I haven't had a strong enough reason to change my process to add the extra overhead.
