Power BI Weekly Issue 105: 13th April 2021

A few updates this week: Object-Level Security (OLS) is now generally available in Power BI Premium and Pro, there's a new sharing experience coming soon (shareable links), and we've been told about What's New In Dataflows - April 2021 including terminology updates ("entities" are now called "tables", and "fields" are called "columns").

Elsewhere this week, Nikola Ilic has written the final part of a series on Query folding in Power BI - tricks, lies & ultimate performance test, Sam Fischer has described How to reset calculation groups in a custom tooltip or drillthrough page, and Priscilla Camp has shared A quick trick using the Relative Date Filter in Power BI.
