The way to create it is to put a \ in the display folder name, here is an example:Įach measure should be part of a table, however, that table would be like a placeholder only for that measure. If you want, you can create subfolders too. Then select a column, measure, or calculated column (you can select multiple items using Ctrl+Click), then under Properties, you will see the Display FolderĪs soon as you press Enter, you will see all of those measures (and/or columns) under a folder under that table: One of the easiest ways to create a display folder is to go to the Model tab in Power BI Desktop. Display folder is a virtual folder which can be used for fields (columns), calculated columns, and measures to group them together. It is simple to add a display folder in Power BI. You can use the Search box of course to find something, but having them organized is always helpful. I have seen examples with over 100 measures under a table. If you have just added calculated columns and measures in Power BI solution, your file will look like this in Power BI Desktop:Īnd this is an example of a file with only a few measures. If you like to read more about Power BI, read Power BI book from Rookie to Rock Star. In this very short article, I’ll explain how you can use Display Folders in Power BI to organize your measures properly. When you use Power BI for a while, you will gradually have more DAX measures and calculations, and having them organized under folders is always helpful. JsonLocation $(Pipeline.Although very simple, still I see many Power BI reports with no organized way of separating measures. This makes it easier to configure paths within your YAML code. You may also want to add a (temporary) treeview step to check the paths on your agent.
Make sure you have a checkout step to copy the config and powershell file from the repository to the agent. If you integrate this in your existing Data Factory or Synapse YAML pipeline then you only need to add one PowerShell step. Write-output "File $($path) not found, containers not setup." Write-Output "Storageaccount: $($StorageAccountName) not available, containers not setup." Write-Output "Path $($folder) created in container $($container)" New-AzDataLakeGen2Item -Context $context -FileSystem $container -Path $path -Directory | Out-Null
Write-Output "Path $($folder) exists in container $($container)" $FolderCheck = Get-AzDataLakeGen2Item -FileSystem $container -Context $context -Path $path -ErrorAction Silentl圜ontinue # 3) Check if path ends with a forward slash # 1) Replace backslashes by a forward slash Write-Output "Found $($folders.Count) folders in config for container $($container)" Write-Output "Retrieving folders from config" New-AzStorageContainer -Name $container -Context $context | Out-Null Write-Output "Creating container $($container)" Write-Output "Container $($container) already exists" $ContainerCheck = Get-AzStorageContainer -Context $context -Name $container -ErrorAction Silentl圜ontinue Write-output "Checking existence of container $($container)" # First a little cleanup of the container # Loop through container array and create containers if the don't exist Write-output "Storage account $($StorageAccountName) found" $StorageCheck = Get-AzStorageAccount -ResourceGroupName $ResourceGroupName -Name $StorageAccountName -ErrorAction Silentl圜ontinue # Check Storage Account existance and get the context of it $Containers = $($_.containers) | Get-Member -MemberType NoteProperty | Select-Object -ExpandProperty Name $Config = Get-Content -Raw -Path $path | ConvertFrom-Json # Get all container objects from JSON file # Check existance of file path on the agent Write-output "Extracting containernames from $($path)" $path = Join-Path -Path $JsonLocation -ChildPath "config_storage_account.json" # you need different files/configurations per environment. Create an extra parameters for the filename if # Combine path and file name for JSON file.
FOLDERS FOR FOLDERS FACTORY UPDATE
# It does not delete of update containers and folders or set authorizations This is of course possible, but make sure to test this very thoroughly and even with testing a human error in configuring the config file is easy to make and could cause lots of data lose! # This PowerShell will create the containers provided in the JSON file Note that the script will not delete containers and folders (or set authorizations to them).
