Master the Basics of Power BI: Get Data from Excel to PBI, Update, Change Data Sources & More 

Today's tutorial is dedicated to my best friend, who just started learning Power BI. She asked me for a simple tutorial that covers the basics. So, here it is!
Welcome to my Power BI tutorial dedicated to beginners! In this video, I'll guide you through the essential concepts you need to know to get started with Power BI. Join me as I demonstrate how to import data from Excel to a Power BI desktop report, understand the source data location, update your report with refreshed data, and even repoint it to a new data source.
There are 4 parts to this video.
Part 1
The first thing we'll cover is how to get data from Excel into a Power BI desktop report. Many of us work with Excel files, and Power BI makes it easy to leverage that data for advanced visualizations
Part 2
Have you ever wondered which file or location the data is saved in? In this video, I will show you how to discover the exact file and location that Power BI is pulling the data from. It's crucial to understand this connection for effective report management.
Part 3
What if the data source file gets updated? How do we flow those changes to our Power BI report?
I will show you how to do that in this section.
Part 4
What if we want to repoint our Power BI report to a new data source? Maybe you have a different file or location you'd like to use. Let me show you how it's done!
Whether you're new to Power BI or looking to enhance your skills, this tutorial will give you a solid foundation. Don't forget to give this video a thumbs up, subscribe to my channel, and stay tuned for more Power BI tutorials and tips. Let's dive into the power of Power BI together!
