intelligence tool that converts data from different sources to interactive
dashboards.
Module 2: Getting Data
Info: The first experience of working with Power BI is getting data. For some data
sources you can have a live or direct connection and some connections work
offline. Power BI takes information from data sources and turns them into
custom visuals designed to help an organization not only read the info but
get a clear idea of what to do. Here you can connect too many data sources
on-premises or on cloud. In this module you will learn everything about
getting data experience in Power BI.
