Microsoft Power BI StrawberryRead every report, draft every dataset, approve in one pass
Your Microsoft Power BI, worked while you do something else: 10 reads to go through it, 5 writes to change it, and a card in front of every one of those changes.
Open the report. Check it against something else. Write the change. Move to the next one. That is the Microsoft Power BI afternoon nobody can hand off, and a companion does the whole pass and gives you back the batch, with nothing landing on a report until you approve it.
What it can do is exactly what Microsoft Power BI exposes to an account you authorise and nothing beyond it: 15 operations, 10 reads and 5 writes. In practice that means it can execute a DAX query, add rows to push dataset and create a dataset, and work across the reports, datasets and dataset refreshes.
The Microsoft Power BI API stops at Microsoft Power BI. A companion does not. The same run opens the customer's website, the supplier portal, the internal tool somebody built in 2019, because it is working the browser you are already signed into rather than calling in from outside it.
Does it read the reports or ask you for them?
10 of the 15 operations are reads.
Your account, not a guess at it: a companion can refresh dataset, list workspaces and list reports, and the full list below is the whole list, with nothing inferred from Microsoft Power BI's documentation.
The reports are what most of this inventory is about, alongside the datasets. A companion can hold all 15 of these operations and forty open tabs in the same pass, which is how an afternoon of Microsoft Power BI admin becomes a queue you review.

What happens before it can execute DAX query?
All 5 write operations wait for you.
A companion can execute a DAX query, add rows to push dataset and create a dataset, and each one is staged on an approval card first: you see the report, the field and the new value before it lands in Microsoft Power BI.
Nothing in Microsoft Power BI is sent, changed or deleted on your behalf without that click, and a rejected card leaves the report exactly as it was. The gate is the same one on every surface, described at security.
- Execute DAX Query
- Add Rows To Push Dataset
- Create Dataset
- Cancel Dataset Refresh
- Add Rows to Dataset Table
Does the report sweep have to be asked for every time?
Yes.
Saved as a routine, the Microsoft Power BI reports pass runs at the hour you pick: the Monday sweep, the overnight refresh, the Friday check. Keep Awake holds the machine awake for the length of a run, so a scheduled pass finishes with the lid closed.
The research and analysis playbook catalogues the other recurring shapes of the reporting, the Microsoft Power BI reports sweep among them, and finished runs are published at real runs.
