September 29, 2020 By Mike Carlo

This month we got the Power BI desktop update a little bit later because it was released during the 2020 Ignite conference. As always the MVPs are super excited to talk about the latest Power BI features.

This month’s release was packed with all sorts of new features. For a full list of features read the official Microsoft Blog post. Some of our favorite features that the MVPs talked about are:

Search for a workspace during publishing
Premium Per User (PPU)

PADU and Fabric - Ep.570

Tommy Puglia borrows a four-bucket scale from Fatal Risk and asks where Fabric patterns land: preferred, accepted, discouraged, or unacceptable. Mike Carlo keeps the answer tied to the job, not the artifact.
