Milwaukee Brew City PUG – April 2020

The Milwaukee Brew City PUG for April kicks off with some quick updates and highlights of upcoming events. We spend a quick minute on why we’re so excited about the fantastic line up of webinars that we were able to do recently. They highlight the top 3rd party tools to get the most our of your Power BI experience. We were excited to welcome a brand new Microsoft MVP – Chris Wagner to speak to us in this April PUG. He walks through How to Build a World Class Center of Excellence for Power BI. We also had some great conversation around a myriad of topics at the latter half of the meeting, so be sure to stick around to catch some of that at the end.

Enjoy the Meeting!

Power BI Desktop Bridge – Ep.552

Desktop Bridge gives agents a local server to drive Power BI Desktop — reload files, check report state, and take screenshots so the agent can verify its own work. Mike and Tommy agree on the prerequisite: don't use it without skills.
