Experiment No. 7
Aim: Develop a dashboard and reporting tool based on real time social media data.
Theory:
Power BI is an interactive software developed by Microsoft for the main purpose of data visualisation and
business intelligence. Input data can come from a variety of sources, including from a database, webpage, or
structured files such as an Excel spreadsheet, a CSV file, and so on. These data can then be visualised via
different visuals to communicate insights. We will be reading our data from an Excel spreadsheet, create
visualisations using built-in Power BI visuals, as well as publish the report online once we are done.

Get data The first step to building any dashboard is getting the data in. Simply choose from a range of options
including Excel, SQL Server, CSV file and more under the get data icon.
● Here, because our transaction data set is in the form of an Excel spreadsheet, we will proceed with the Excel
workbook option.
● Choose the ‘Local File’ option from the list of options on the next page and upload the Excel file.

Opening a report from the uploaded data


Notice that from the workspace image, there are two file types of the same name. One is the dataset and the
other is the dashboard.
Click on the Superstore.xlsx dashboard. On the blank canvas that pops up, click on the dataset name
‘Superstore.xlsx’.
Finally, a Reporting canvas will appear, similar to the view on Power BI Desktop.

Creating a tile and ‘Pin to a Dashboard’


Power BI report service, just like the desktop version, includes a variety of page formatting options, including
visuals, shapes, and images, that can help your report stand out. One of the most efficient ways to identify and
communicate insights is to use Power BI to create visuals. You can begin creating your visuals after you have
decided on the data that will form the basis of your report, and designed the layout of this report.
However, before you start working on your data visualization, you must first decide what insights you want to
garner, and then develop and personalize visualizations to display the data in an engaging and informative
manner.
You can work on how to visualize these insights after you have identified them in order to bring value to your
audience. We will create a simple donut chart that shows the ‘Sales across the Shipmode’.

● Select the donut chart option from the visualization pane.

● Drop the Sales in the Values field and Ship Mode to the legend.
● We now have a donut chart.

● Save the report by clicking on the ‘Reading view’ option on the ribbon at the top.

● Give the report a name. In this case, we will call it ‘Superstore’.

Pin an Entire Report to a Power BI Dashboard


● We will first need to create more visuals for our Superstore Report. You can download the sample report used
here.
● Go back to ‘My workspace’. Open the Superstore report type.

● Click on the Edit button.

● Add some more Power BI Visuals.

● Select the option (...) at the top of the report view.

Conclusion: Thus, PowerBI is a powerful tool by Microsoft which can be used to build interactive
visualization of data.
