Building a Dashboard

With a robust semantic model and multiple reports created in Power BI Desktop, dashboards can be developed in the Power BI service to consolidate the most valuable KPIs, measures, and visualizations onto a single pane of glass. Additionally, dashboards provide an access point to the detailed reports supporting the tiles and are optimized for mobile access through the Power BI mobile application.

Power BI dashboards are collections of tiles created in the Power BI service, representing the visuals from one or many Power BI reports and, optionally, other sources, such as Excel and SQL Server Reporting Services (SSRS). Dashboards are best utilized to centralize essential key performance indicators (KPIs), measures, and trends in a visual- and mobile-optimized layout. Additionally, dashboards can provide an entryway to other dashboards or reports and are further enhanced with URL links, streaming data, images, web content, and interactivity.
