Reporting
Path Layer for the Azure Map visual
This month we’re introducing a new feature to the Azure Map visual that takes geospatial analytics to the next level, the Path layer. The Path layer provides users with the ability to visualize geographic connections between multiple points. Whether you’re managing logistics, analyzing network traffic, or tracking asset shipment across the globe, this feature allows you to visualize connections between multiple geographic points in an intuitive and interactive way.
The Path layer is ideal for several key scenarios, for example:
Network Analysis: For industries like telecommunications, the Path Layer enables you to map intricate network connections. It helps identify inefficiencies, monitor data flow, and strengthen critical infrastructure.
Flight Path Analysis: Airlines can leverage the Path Layer to visualize and analyze flight routes, improving air traffic management. It helps identify new route opportunities and enhances the overall passenger experience by optimizing existing routes.
To get started, add the location for each point using either a geocoded location field, such as city names, or latitude and longitude. Then, differentiate between the paths by adding a field to the Path ID field well and indicate the order of connection through the Point Order field well.
For example, you could create a map showing the path of two ships with the latitude and longitude of their positions for each point, a path field with a unique identifier for each ship, and a timestamp for each location to make sure the points are connected in the correct order.
You can also format the visual by controlling the color, transparency and width of the lines, and even turning off the bubble markers for each point. If you turn off the bubble layer, you’ll only see a bubble on hover showing you the closest point to your pointer location. Paths are interactive as well, so you’ll get tooltips on hover and be able to cross-highlight other visuals by clicking on points of the lines.
There are a couple of unique behaviors to be aware of with this new layer. First, when using a drill hierarchy with the path layer, the visual will automatically drill down to the lowest level and will not allow you to drill up, as points in the path would be aggregated at higher drill levels.
Next, if you have a location that’s part of multiple paths, the bubbles for that location show up on top of each other. If you want to click on the bubbles underneath, just hover on the line associated with its path, and it will float to the top and be selectable. Lastly, you can further break down the paths by adding a legend, which will create unique lines for each legend value of a given path ID.
An additional point to consider: Currently, the path layer operates mainly in conjunction with the bubble layer. Once you add a path to your map, you’ll see that the filled, cluster bubbles, heat map, and 3D column layers are all disabled. Additionally, while you can use the path layer in conjunction with reference layers, the reference layer will be static. It’s currently unsupported to mix data bound reference layers with the path layer.
The path layer is still actively rolling out to all regions. Depending on what region your tenant is in, you might not see the path layer in the Power BI service through the weekend. Be sure to check the report after publishing, and if you don’t see the layer, it should be accessible within a week.
We’re excited to see what you create with this new path layer. Give it a try and let us know what features you’d like to see next!
Visual calculations (Preview)
The work on visual calculations continues as usual and this month we are adding a highly requested item: support for exporting! You can now export data from visuals that contain one or more visual calculations or hidden fields.
If you export data, hidden fields on a visual are not included in the export, unless you export the underlying data. The results of visual calculations are always included in the export, except when exporting underlying data, since visual calculations are not part of the underlying data as they only exist on the visual.
Learn more about visual calculations in our documentation.
Small multiples for the new card visual (Preview)
With this month’s update, we’re enhancing the Card visual with a new version that retains all familiar features and updates, while adding advanced functionality and an improved user experience with small multiples.
This new feature is currently in preview with the new Card visual, offering an excellent opportunity to experience the capabilities of the feature.
Small multiples are a series of similar card tiles displayed together in a grid format, each representing a different category or dimension of data, allowing for easy OKR comparison and analysis across multiple fields.
This newly added feature enhances data organization, visual clarity, and performance, making it easier to analyze and present data effectively. To try it, navigate to Options and settings > Options > Preview features > New card visual, and make sure it’s enabled.
Another advantage of the new Small multiples feature is the extensive customization it offers, including:
- Small multiples layout: Choose from single column, single row, or grid, and customize the number of small multiples, rows, or columns displayed.
- Advanced formatting options: Enhanced features such as font styles, color-coding, and conditional formatting.
- Border and gridlines: When enabled, individual controls for borders and gridlines permit the customization of style, width, color, and transparency.
- Overflow style: Options include continuous scroll or paginated, to smoothly navigate through multiple cards without overwhelming visual space.
- Headers: Choose from horizontal or vertical orientation, top or left position, customizable alignment, font, color, transparency, padding, plus background color or image.
To create a card visual with Small multiples, first select the Card (new) icon from the visual gallery on the Build visual tab in the Visualizations pane, then select some data fields from the data model to add them to the data field well.
To categorize your cards using small multiples, choose a data field from the data model and add it to the Small multiples data field well.
This new feature provides extensive customization options, such as layout, advanced formatting options, conditional formatting, borders and gridlines, overflow style, and customizable headers.
Small multiples for the Card visual in Power BI offer another great enhancement that significantly improves data organization, visual clarity, and performance.
The Core Visuals team continues to add new features and greater functionality, and we’re committed to improving our capabilities. We invite you to explore this new feature and share your feedback with us in the comment section below as we continue to improve our Card visual capabilities.
We understand your eagerness to delve deeper into Small multiples and grasp how these enhancements fulfill the highly requested features by our community.

New visual – text slicer (Preview)
Introducing the new text slicer, now available in our core visuals gallery.
This month brings the arrival of the new text slicer in Power BI offering new possibilities for both users and the organization.
Enable the new text slicer by navigating to Options and settings > Options > Preview features > text slicer visual to ensure its selected, and restart Power BI.
The text slicer works by allowing users to input specific text that acts as a filter, targeting a designated data field. By entering the desired text in the slicer’s input box, the slicer effectively narrows down the dataset to display only the relevant information that contains the entered text. This functionality is particularly useful for handling large datasets, where quick and precise filtering is essential for efficient data analysis and presentation.
To create a text slicer visual, select the text slicer icon from the visual gallery on the Build visual tab in the Visualizations pane. This adds a visual placeholder to the report canvas.
To filter a dataset, add a text field from the data model to the Field well to establish the text slicer’s functionality, allowing it to filter the dataset based on user input. Simply add text to the slicer’s input box, select the apply icon, or press enter, and the slicer immediately filters the dataset, displaying results on the visual.
As shown here, the new text slicer introduces a powerful and customizable filtering tool in Power BI:
- Improved user experience: The text slicer provides users with a straightforward and efficient method to filter input.
- Unmatched customization: It offers numerous options for users to tailor their filter experience to their needs and preferences.
The Core Visuals team is dedicated to enhancing our features and functionality continuously. We are committed to advancing our capabilities and highly value your feedback. Kindly share your insights regarding this capability in the comments section below.

Metric sets: a new era of metric management in Fabric (Preview)
The public preview of metric sets is now officially available for both service and desktop. This is a transformative new feature designed to redefine how organizations manage and consume metrics.
The Fabric Metric Layer’s home base is the Metrics Hub in Power BI and brings powerful capabilities to streamline metric management, ensure consistency, and foster trust in data across your organization.
Metric sets will be available for both consumers to browse, and creators to use in reporting. A service experience consisting of visualized metrics and data exploration will allow end users to answer their data questions. The desktop experience will allow creators to connect to the most authoritative metrics to visualize in reports.
Key Features:
- Curated Collection of Metrics: metric sets will serve as a collection of measure pointers to source semantic models and include key dimensions so end users and authors alike can unambiguously understand how a metric should be grouped or used.
- Rich Consumption Experiences: Users can explore and consume metrics from the metric set itself, allowing for deep insights and understanding. Copilot summaries and multiple visuals will be available for users to scroll through and go from data to insights in seconds.
- Efficiency: Consumers no longer need to rely on report creators to answer questions or build custom reports for specific needs. Consumers can leverage the Explore dialog to dig deeper into a given metric in an environment where everything in the data pane ‘just works’ because the dimensions have been curated specifically for the metric.
- Discoverability and Reuse:
- Consumers – Metrics are discoverable via search, and metric sets can be promoted, endorsed, certified just like any artifact so that users trust it. Consumers can also leverage the Explore dialog to dig deeper into a given metric in a safe environment where everything in the data pane ‘just works’ because the dimensions have been curated specifically for the metric.
- Authors- Metrics in Desktop: In the November release of desktop, metric sets will be available to connect to and use in desktop reporting. You can access the metric you want to include in your model via OneLake datahub / data catalog and connect there. This ensures your reports use the most up to date and authoritative measures available.

Announcing performance improvements for models with calculation groups and format strings in Excel
We’re excited to announce significant performance improvements for MDX queries on models with Calculation Groups and Format Strings!
The latest changes should greatly improve the performance and reliability of operations in Analyze in Excel on models that include one or both of:
- Dynamic Format Strings for Measures
- Calculated Items with Format Strings
This extends to other MDX scenarios as well, so all client applications that use MDX to query semantic models with the above will experience the same performance benefits.
DLP policies restrict access action for semantic models (Preview)
Purview data loss prevention policies for Fabric now enable admins to restrict access based on the sensitive information detected within their semantic models’ data.
When Purview compliance admins configure DLP policies for Fabric, they now have the option to decide if upon detecting sensitive information they would like to block access to the data. They have the option to prevent guest users from accessing the data or to restrict access for all users except the data administrator.
In Fabric, data admins will see an indication that their data is restricted, and can act, such as reporting an issue to the compliance admin or override the policy rule.
Consumers, such as guest users who have been now restricted from seeing this information, also see an indication letting them know that an organization policy revoked their access, and if they attempt to see its content, they will not be able to.
With restrict access action, compliance admins get further control and enforcement when uncovering sensitive data in their Fabric tenant.
Semantic modeling in Visual Studio Code with the new TMDL extension (Preview)

Developers + APIs
Fabric Git: TMDL format for semantic model export
As part of our commitment to providing a developer-friendly experience that enhances team collaboration, Fabric Git integration will begin exporting semantic model definitions as Tabular Model Definition Language (TMDL) in January 2025. This change will replace the use of a single JSON file (model.bim) with Tabular Model Scripting Language (TMSL).
Due to its folder representation and readable format, TMDL offers a significantly improved source control experience. This enhancement facilitates tracking commit history and simplifies the resolution of merge conflicts, particularly when compared with TMSL.
If necessary, you can continue to obtain the TMSL representation of your semantic model by using the Get Semantic Model Definition REST API or XMLA Endpoint.
Semantic model client library updates
Client applications, such as Excel or Power BI Desktop, connecting to Power BI semantic models now benefit from better performance due to an automatic conversion of legacy connection strings (e.g. pbiazure://*) to the XMLA endpoint. Requests are routed directly through the XMLA endpoint, reducing intermediary steps, speeding up request processing, and decreasing the likelihood of errors.
You may need to update your firewall rules. See the troubleshooting document for details.
Please ensure that you are using the latest Analysis Services client libraries for optimal performance when connecting to Power BI semantic models.

Lollipop bar chart by Nova Silva
We’re thrilled to continue receiving your valuable feedback, and we appreciate your contributions in helping us improve our visuals.
In our latest Lollipop Bar Chart release for Power BI, we’ve added a much-requested feature: secondary markers. This allows you to display not only the primary value but also add context by including a secondary value marker.
This new feature integrates seamlessly with all other Lollipop Bar Chart functionalities, such as transforming the Lollipop Bar Chart into a dot plot by removing the connecting bars, as shown in the second image. This also removes the requirement to start your numeric scale at 0, allowing you to have a closer look at the values and their differences.
While standard bar charts are great for comparing a single measure across categories, they can become cluttered with larger datasets (>10 categories). The colored bars may fill too much of the chart space. To address this, the Lollipop Bar Chart offers a cleaner, more efficient alternative, minimizing clutter without sacrificing clarity.
Try the Lollipop Bar Chart for FREE now on your own data by downloading it from the AppSource.
