How to Add a Connection in Power BI
In Power BI, adding a connection means linking Power BI to a data source so it can import or query the data directly. Here’s how:
- Launch Power BI and go to the 'Home' tab. Click the 'Get Data' button.
- You’ll see popular options or click 'More...' to browse all available connectors.
- Choose the source you want to connect to. Power BI will prompt you to add a file. Choose the file and click 'Open'.
- Once connected, Power BI shows a preview of the tables or data available.
- Select the data you want, click 'Load' to bring it in.
- Once connected, you can pull the data into Power BI and start building visuals.
