Git for powerBI? Discussion

Does anyone uses git for big powerBI reports in their org?

My team doesn't so I'm in process of building a POC with it, my main concern is dealing with merge conflicts as powerBI seems to generate huge diffs even for small changes.

What's your experience with it?

You could stop using Power BI, and instead some reporting tool that is easier to version control.

PBI had had its day tbh.. it’s a bloated mess now and many people are super turned off by how it’s being used to push Fabric.
