New Column = When we need a calculation on every row in that case we use column and
it is static in nature.
New Measure = When we need aggregation, Eg- Percentage, Ratio, Aggregation etc
[Coding/Formula]
Measure is not static value its dynanamic in nature, will not add in the existing
table, is displayed in vizualization.
Type of Measures:-
Implicit- Readymade Measure. [Doing as it own, Basic Aggregation]
Explicit- For measure if we write the formala to get some derived result than it
called as Explicit measure

What are ‘Measures’ in Power BI? How can we create them?

What do you understand by the Power BI Gateway?

What is Bidirectional cross-filtering in Power BI?

Which table functions will you use to group data in Power BI?

What are query parameters? What are Power BI Templates?

How many active relationships can we have between two tables in Power Pivot data
model?

Tell us about “Query folding” in Power Query

What do you know about the transformation in Power Query Editor?

Ans. The Power Query Editor enables us to import data from multiple sources and
transform it in many ways as per our requirements. Some general data transformation
practices in Power Query Editor are:

Change data types of columns.

Rename columns.
Replace values.
Fix errors in Any Column group.
Working with the nested data in Structured Column groups.
Add custom columns, conditional columns, add measures, etc.

What do you know about the Power Map?

What are the different types of data refreshes in Power BI?

In Power BI, data of published reports can be refreshed in four ways; Package
refresh, Model refresh, Tile refresh, and Visual container refresh.

Package refresh – The package refresh will refresh the report by updating the data
from SharePoint Online or OneDrive. Package refreshing does not refresh data from
the source but from its cloud location.
Model or Data refresh – This type of refreshing refreshes data in a report from its
original data source. Model or data refresh is done within the Power BI Service
with the help of gateway permission for on-premises data sources. This method uses
Refresh now, or Schedule refresh options.
Tile refresh – Tile refresh refreshes the cache data of all the tiles on a
dashboard. It occurs in every 15 minutes automatically. If it does not happen, we
can select the Refresh dashboard tiles option from the ellipses(…) icon on the
dashboard.
Visual container refresh – This refresh refreshes the cache of all the visuals
containers of a Power BI report.

What is an Advanced editor in Power BI?

Ans. An Advanced Editor is an editor within the Power Query Editor. It is used to
view the M-code for any query. The Advanced Editor is generally used to check the
syntax of a query that will be run in the editor.

We can access the Advanced Editor from the Home or View tab in Power Query Editor.
We can select a query from the list of queries and work with it in the Advanced
editor window and analyze the code step by step.

Can we use Power BI on mobile devices?

Ans. Yes, we can use Power BI on mobile devices. Power BI has mobile compatible
apps for Android devices, iOS devices, and Windows 10 devices. We can download the
Power BI app for a preferred device from app stores such as Google Play, Microsoft
Store or Apple App Store.

What is Bookmark?

Bookmark in Power BI helps you to capture the configured view of a report page in a
specific time. This includes filter and state of visual which can use a short cut
to come back to the report that you can add as a bookmark.

How to handle Many to Many relationships in Power BI?

You can use Crossfiltering option in Power BI to address the Many to Many
relationships.

State the major differences between MAX and MAXA functions

If you want to calculate numeric values, then use MAX. However, if it is for non
numeric values, then you should use MAXA.
