Why study this course

This one-day course will walk attendees through the Microsoft Power BI administration and the management of a Power BI tenant, including the configuration of tenant settings, usage monitoring, and provisioning of licences, as well as other organisational resources.

It covers the typical admin tasks and tools, such as Power BI admin portal and Office 365 admin centre, and how to automate them by using administrative APIs and PowerShell cmdlets. Specific hands-on labs will focus on using Premium capacity in Power BI, safely sharing Power BI assets, and using the Power BI audit log to optimise Power BI usage.

Important note: Power BI is a Microsoft App that is not currently supported on non-Windows systems (such as Apple Mac).
