How to Get insights in Power BI

In this example, we will find the insight of a Adventure Works for RPT1 dataset in Power BI. So, click on the … button beside the Adventure Works for RPT1

Clicking that … button will open a context menu. Please select Get Quick Insights option from the context menu.

Please wait until the Power BI algorithms process your data to find insights

Once the process is completed either you click the button that we shown below

Or, click … button beside the dataset will open a context menu. Please select View Insights option (Get Quick insights was replaced by this option) from that menu.

From the below screenshot, you can see the visuals that was generated by the Power BI insights. Like any other report, Power BI allows you to pin these visuals to the dashboard.

In order to Pin any individual visual, hover over that visual will show you the Pin Visual button that we shown in below screenshot

Or click on the report that you want to see. Next, click the Pin Visual button on the Top right corner.

Clicking Pin Visual button will open following window. Let me select Existing dashboard i.e., Fifth Dashboard. I suggest you to refer Add Report to dashboard or Pin Report to dashboard articles to understand theses settings.

Within the Fifth dashboard, you can see the Bar Chart that we pinned before.
