Using CI/CD with Power BI

When you're first starting out with Power BI and want to share content with other users, you probably just hit the publish button in Power BI Desktop. If you are like me, eventually you start to think, surely there has to be a better way to do this?! Spoiler: There is and I'm here to help you explore it!

Join me in this session where we will discuss what CI/CD is and why you should care about it as a Power BI developer, all through the lens of my personal journey with Power BI.
We'll discuss the problems I encountered as a beginner developer. Then we'll explore the options built into Power BI via a handful of demos, which I explored in the intermediate stage of my career. Then finally we'll touch on some of the more advanced techniques I use now via external tools like Tabular Editor, Azure DevOps & the Fabric APIs.
Together, we'll discover more mature & scalable ways for you to deploy Power BI content to your end users. You'll unlock the power of effective multi-developer collaboration and begin to realise all the benefits that CI/CD best practices can make for a Power BI development team.
