Well, this is interesting. SQL 2022. No more parameter sniffing?

If you assassinate a DBA, would you pull a trigger?

Heh... nothing could go wrong there, right? 😀

RBAR is pronounced "ree-bar" and is a "Modenism" for Row-By-Agonizing-Row.
First step towards the paradigm shift of writing Set Based code:
________Stop thinking about what you want to do to a ROW... think, instead, of what you want to do to a COLUMN.

Change is inevitable... Change for the better is not.

I am not seeing a Power BI forum on this group. Is there one and I'm just missing it?

One of our Devs has a question. He's trying to get Power BI reports loaded and out as a steam or byte array in C# code and has no idea how to do that. Does anyone have any website links he could investigate?

My Google-Fu doesn't seem to find anything based on these keywords and I know nothing about Power BI, so am unable to refine my search further.

Is he using the Power BI REST API? The functions available for reports are documented here. I don't see anything about streaming there, but maybe it is of some interest.

Brandie Tarvin SSC Guru Points: 173108 More actions · Answer 6

I don't know what API he's using, but I will forward the information. Thanks!

Don't know PowerBi or use it but maybe this might help

I'm surprised that a google search isn't sending you in the right direction. The links already provided are where to start, plus this link: https://community.powerbi.com/

One tip. Look at the date on anything written about Power BI. It changes by the minute. Articles written a few months ago may be obsolete.

I kind of blame myself for our issues. I should have put up the stop sign two years ago. But, of course, the "We need to get this done" took over.

Now, I am herding cats. Our environment is a mess.

At least I am getting buy in from the folks up and down the food chain.

I like Power BI, but it's not completely intuitive, can be a mess to deploy, and certainly isn't built for version control. I am most upset about that last one.

Greg Edwards-268690 SSC-Insane Points: 20680 More actions · Answer 13

Power BI is like Excel on steroids. Many times you can make a mess faster.

Although you can pull and join data from multiple sources, unless you control those sources, at some point things will change. And then you may be off to the races.
