2021 Week 49 – 51 | Power BI: Advent Calendar with Holiday Challenges

Introduction

As holiday season is upon us, we have created a Power BI Advent Calendar for you to enjoy. Select each day to open a surprise. The surprise for each day will not be available until we reach that day (in UTC time). If you try to open a gift before we have reached the day, you will see a big question mark. When you open an available gift, you can click on the image to go to the workout. 

There are new holiday mini-workouts for you to enjoy each Wednesday until December 25th. The finished workout, the instructions, and the link to the dataset are in the link in the gift for the day.

Gifts for each non-Wednesday include a link to some of our favorite exercises from this year. If you are wanting to catch up on your Power BI workouts, use the links in the daily gifts to guide you to some fun exercises. 

Requirements

  •  Enjoy seeing our favorite exercises each day by opening a present daily
  • Complete the holiday mini-workouts for Dec 8, 15, and 22 and share your work with the week number (the 8th is week 49, the 15th is Week 50, and the 22nd is week 51).

Dataset

It’s possible to complete the holiday workouts by creating your own dataset. But if you would like a bit of help, the datasets I used can be found on Data.World. Data for all 3 workouts are located using the same dataset ID. 

If you are using the Data.World connector in Power BI, here is the info you will need: 
Username: mlongoria
Dataset ID: wow2021dec

Share

After you finish your workout, share on Twitter using the hashtags #WOW2021 and #PowerBI, and tag @JSBaucke@MMarie, and @shan_gsdAlso make sure to fill out the Submission Tracker so that we can count you as a participant this week in order to track our participation throughout the year. 

Solution

No solution video this week. You will be able to download the PBIX file with the finished holiday workout from the Data.World dataset!
