I'm largely self-taught on Power BI but this is a great book to really kick off right the way - all the way through from installing the software and other supporting tools like Report Builder, building a model and report and then improving and documenting it.Each chapter is very well laid out in a clear format - I like the structure with "Getting ready", "How it works" and "There's more" in nice bitesize chunks with each chapter closing out with a good Summary.There are links to GitHub so you can do the doing which works really well.There are some great modelling techniques in this book for both the beginner and more advanced user.Definitely another great addition to the bookshelf with nice colour screenshots, well laid out as with other Packt books I've read and does a great job of getting the technical aspects articulated clearly.

I'll be clear and brief: this is a great Power BI cookbook! I've read a handful of Power BI books over the years and I think this is one of the best ones to date. It covers everything from licensing to getting started with Microsoft fabric. With more than 550 pages across 13 chapters, you will walk away with a deep understanding of Power BI best practices. Easy to read, follow, and understand too!

Can I download the code files for Early Access titles? Chevron down icon Chevron up icon

We try to ensure that all books in Early Access have code available to use, download, and fork on GitHub. This helps us be more agile in the development of the book, and helps keep the often changing code base of new versions and new technologies as up to date as possible. Unfortunately, however, there will be rare cases when it is not possible for us to have downloadable code samples available until publication.

When we publish the book, the code files will also be available to download from the Packt website.

How accurate is the publication date? Chevron down icon Chevron up icon

The publication date is as accurate as we can be at any point in the project. Unfortunately, delays can happen. Often those delays are out of our control, such as changes to the technology code base or delays in the tech release. We do our best to give you an accurate estimate of the publication date at any given time, and as more chapters are delivered, the more accurate the delivery date will become.

As we go through the process of developing a course, 99% of it can be ready but we can't publish until that last 1% falls in to place. Early Access helps to unlock the potential of our content early, to help you start your learning when you need it most. You not only get access to every chapter as it's delivered, edited, and updated, but you'll also get the finalized, DRM-free product to download in any format you want when it's published.
