Ruben Van de Voorde provides an overview of how source control works with Power BI reports:
Some years ago, our founder Daniel wrote a five-part blog series titled “You’re deploying it wrong!”, which was essentially him shouting that he stole fire from the software gods and handing out torches. He was talking about how software engineers had this wonderful thing called CI/CD, and how it was finally within reach of data people working with Analysis Services. Jokes aside, the core ideas have not changed, but the landscape and toolchain have, so the series deserves an update, and this is it.
Power BI has come a long way in this regard. Unless you’re using Power BI Report Server, in which case, the joke’s on you.
I’m going to return to my Power BI Report Server corner now and not have any of the nice things.
