How to Find Great PowerBI Dashboard Examples (2023)
Writer’s block, or is that Designer’s block? Looking for inspiration and some new ideas for dashboards. What better than finding inspiring PowerBI dashboard examples and solutions from others? The following are some of the go-to links I am certain you can find useful.
Power BI Learning Samples With Data
This first set also includes the data behind the visuals. Microsoft’s documentation site offers diverse full samples with data that cover a number of different workloads and subjects. These include built-in samples and apps in the Power BI service, .pbix files, Excel datasets, and SQL databases.
The samples are on the Microsoft Learn documentation site, Get samples for Power BI – Power BI | Microsoft Learn. Some of the samples include;
- Eight original built-in samples in the Power BI service, with dashboards, reports, and datasets
- Financial data sample workbook, a simple flat table in an Excel
- The original and well-loved dataset of the AdventureWorks dimensional model. This is a full tutorial that can walk you through creating a Power BI report with the data.
- Artificial Intelligence sample with a Power BI report. You can learn and use the Power BI artificial intelligence features such as key influencers, root-cause analysis in a decomposition tree, and anomaly detection.
I have had a Pinterest account, https://Pinterest.com/5minutebi, for some time and found it to be a great resource for Power BI dashboard examples, learning, and graphical inspiration. Topic boards, I have set up include; Dashboards, Infographics, PowerBI, Presentations and Training, Data Engineering, Data Visualizations & Resources, among other Data & AI topics. Fair warning, you may also find the odd recipe or backyard garden idea board in the feed. The other added benefit is that the Pins will link to a source site which also may include lessons, tutorials, and other board examples.
Clicking on the Follow ON Pinterest, if you are logged in, will take you to a link where you can follow my Pins. Scroll down the imbed below for a sample.
