Power BI Weekly

Issue #309 - 27th May 2025

A couple of updates this week, which are the Power BI Report Server May 2025 Feature Summary (including a small set of updates from the March Power BI Desktop release) and the On-premises data gateway May 2025 release. On the community side this week, we have a number of interesting articles. Firstly, Ben Gribaudo has made us (or at least me) aware of Power Query's default rounding behaviour, which differs to the high-school rounding most of us will have learned. Philipp Lenz has shown how to create and retrieve Descriptions of key performance indicators/measures and how to visualize/display them in reports. Teo Lachev has written about the good, bad and the ugly in the article First Look at Fabric Translytical Task Flows. Finally, Dan English has written a blog highlighting a small feature from the latest feature summary that may have gone unnoticed, and that's the ability to Paste List of Values into Slicer. So you can now copy some values from Excel and paste them straight into the new List and Button slicers!
