Last week, I posted part one of our Power BI Primer series discussing access and basic administration. This week we’re bringing you Part Two.
If you are an Office365 customer, then you have almost certainly heard about (if not seen) Power BI.
The cloud-based analytics and collaboration platform from Microsoft has some pretty amazing features, and really extends the Microsoft BI platform not only into the cloud but into a more self-service oriented mode.   However, one of the challenges to getting up and running on Power BI has been, well, knowing how to get up and running!
And that’s where we come in.
Perficient has created a 4-part video series that provides step-by-step instructions for getting your Power BI instance working for you. From getting your Power BI Site set up, to administering it, and connecting your Power BI workbooks to on-premises data sources — this series has got you covered!
So let’s take a look at Part 2: Power BI Administration and Permissions

This video takes a deeper look at administering Power BI Sites, including user permissions. This will cover some of the details of securing your Office 365 SharePoint Online site, and granting access to users.
Next time, we’ll get into using all aspects of Power BI data exploration and visualization. Cheers!
