Import Microsoft Planner Data into Power BI Using Power Automate and SharePoint

Image
  In this guide, we’ll cover how to bring task data from Microsoft Planner into Power BI for analysis, using Power Automate and SharePoint as intermediaries.

SharePoint Access  – a SharePoint site to store JSON files. Using SharePoint simplifies the setup, as it doesn’t require a premium Power BI or Power Automate license.

Displaying the Last 6 Months of Data Based on a Single Slicer Selection in Power BI

Data Model Overview To achieve this, we create two relationships between the ‘Date’ table and the ‘Sales’ table. The active relationship uses order data, while the inactive relationship uses delivery data, as shown below:   Data Model Configuration:  We have configured the relationships so that the active relationship filters based on order data, and the inactive relationship filters based on delivery data. The Challenge The challenge is to figure out how to display data for different months using a slicer. In our case, the Year and Month slicer is based on the ‘Date’ table and is currently filtering only the selected months. This is fine for typical month-to-month selection, but we want to display the previous 6 months based on the selected month. The Solution To solve this, we will create an additional table that will contain the same month values a...
