Opening a report from the uploaded data

Notice that from the workspace image, there are two file types of the same
name. One is the dataset and the other is the dashboard.

Click on the Superstore.xlsx dashboard. On the blank canvas that pops up,
click on the dataset name ‘Superstore.xlsx’.

Finally, a Reporting canvas will appear, similar to the view on Power BI

Creating a tile and ‘Pin to a Dashboard’

Power BI report service, just like the desktop version, includes a variety of
page formatting options, including visuals, shapes, and images, that can
help your report stand out. One of the most efficient ways to identify and
communicate insights is to use Power BI to create visuals. You can
begin creating your visuals after you have decided on the data that will
form the basis of your report, and designed the layout of this report.

However, before you start working on your data visualization, you must first
decide what insights you want to garner, and then develop and personalize
visualizations to display the data in an engaging and informative manner.

You can work on how to visualize these insights after you have identified
them in order to bring value to your audience. We will create a simple donut
chart that shows the ‘Sales across the Shipmode’.

 Select the donut chart option from the visualization pane.
