2 Ways To Export Your Filtered Data From Power BI To A CSV File

-

 



There are 2 ways to export data from Power BI to a CSV file, an easy one and a professional one.

  1. The easy method:

The easy one is to export the data with the option that is already available within Power BI
Pros:
  • Easy to do
  • You can apply your filters and choose your columns
Cons:
  • When exporting large data it will just export a sample and it gives you a warning of this before writing the file
First You will have to check this if it's not checked

Then you can easily export it to CSV, after applying all filters you want like this


    2. The Pro method:


Using Dax Studio you can easily export any volume of data with any desirable format

Pros:
  • Very Effective
Cons:
  • You will need to know how to write Dax or you can do your search

You Will Obviously Have To Download Dax Studio  

It is a free 8MBs tool that can be easily downloaded from here: DAX Studio - The ultimate client tool for working with DAX queries

From External tools open Dax Studio


Choose your output as a file


Write your query and hit Run.
Here for example I wanted only the data in the table1 within a certain time range
you can apply any filter you want just like this


Now you can export data from Power BI to a CSV file like whatever you want.

Regards.

  With a mix of Power BI & Excel's versatility and coding experience, You can easily wrangle any kind of data and get the most out of it. Let's see how we can use python in two processes (Data Wrangling & Data Visualization) inside Power BI Make sure that anaconda and python3 installed on your pc. Our Data set The dataset I'm using for this article is a Kaggle dataset that I've recently worked on you can check it out here what we are going to do is to transform some of my work in this notebook to power bi. 2. Data wrangling The data wrangling process in power bi is based inside the query editor After loading your data click on the transform tab then run a python script then you will need to import your libraries and run your code for me, the dataset only needed to replace some values and to get the date and time  for more information check out my Kaggle notebook You will get this after running your code this is the new dataset after running your code  so all you...

Get The Distinct Count Of Values By Each Day Using DAX

  We have a serious issue when it comes to calculating the distinct count of values based on dates, why? cause if you want to get the distinct count for each day, the usual distinct count measure will ignore the day-by-day calculating and will get the distinct count for the whole period.  so let's see how to overcome this. The solution is simple ... we will create a summarization by date and we will iterate through it calculating the distinct count This is the original measure that calculates the distinct count This is our new adjusted measure it simply defines a variable that holds a summarization of our table by date  and through this summarization , we will iterate and calculate the sum of the distinct count for each day Here we can see that for one day the two measures give the same value and it's reasonable  This is the tricky part that the new measure overcomes, for more days, the old measure gets the unique values for the whole bunch of days, not for each day....

Tips To Overcome Over plotting of Dense Scatter Plots.

Here are some tricks to overcome overplotting of dense scatter plots Use a transparency factor: # Matplotlib scatter plot with an alpha value plt . scatter ( df [ X_COL ], df [ Y_COL ], alpha = 0.03 ) plt . xlabel ( X_COL ) plt . ylabel ( Y_COL ) plt . show () This will introduce some transparency to your visual and the less transparency the denser. You can make this even cooler with animated transparency: # Initialize plot and animation camera fig , ( ax1 , ax2 ) = plt . subplots ( 1 , 2 ) # Create 2 camera = Camera ( fig ) # Create a sequence of alpha values alpha_range = np . linspace ( 0.5 , 0 , 30 ) ** 3 # For each alpha value for alpha_value in alpha_range : # Plot "vanilia" plot for reference ax1 . scatter ( df [ X_COL ], df [ Y_COL ], color = 'black' ) # Plot scatter plot with the alpha value ax2 . scatter ( df [ X_COL ], df [ Y_COL ], alpha = alpha_value , color = 'black' ) # Take a ...
