This video explores an interesting alternative to traditional dataflows in Microsoft Power BI—especially as Dataflow Gen1 edges closer to deprecation. Also, Dataflow Gen1 doesn’t support row-level security (RLS), which can be problematic for some scenarios. In this walkthrough, you’ll discover a powerful workaround that leverages core Power BI functionality to not only replicate dataflow behavior but also fully respect RLS, giving users access only to the data they’re permitted to see.
The solution uses a technique involving Analysis Services queries within Power Query to extract individual tables directly from a semantic model—even within Pro workspaces. With step-by-step guidance, you’ll learn how to connect to datasets, dynamically surface available tables, and enable end users to build their own reports securely. This approach opens up flexible, refreshable import scenarios while maintaining strict data governance. If you’re looking for a smarter, more secure way to manage data access in Power BI, this is definitely worth exploring.

Filtering data in Excel tables can often feel frustrating and time-consuming. The typical dropdown filter forces you to scroll through long lists, untick multiple items, and constantly reset filters just to find the information you need. In this video, a much smarter and faster solution is demonstrated—creating a simple searchable filter inside an Excel table that eliminates the need for tedious dropdown filtering.
By adding a search column, a small formula, and a slicer, you can instantly filter results based on exact or partial matches. Using Excel features like Data Validation, the SEARCH function, and table slicers, the method allows you to quickly find matching values and even highlight issues such as missing values (N/A). The approach works particularly well in Excel 365, where dropdown lists are automatically unique and searchable. If you regularly filter large datasets, this technique can dramatically improve your workflow and make data analysis far more efficient.

After 10 years of using Power Query, there are still new tricks to discover—and this one is surprisingly simple but incredibly useful. In this video, you’ll learn how to sort columns alphabetically in Power Query using both the classic desktop method and the newer modern interface. Whether you're building custom columns or just want a cleaner, more organised query layout, this quick tip can save you time and frustration.
But that’s not all. You’ll also discover why the traditional “Choose Columns → Sort by Name” trick doesn’t work in Dataflows or Excel Online—and what to do instead using Schema View. Plus, for those who want a fully dynamic solution, the video walks through how to use M code (including Table.ColumnNames and List.Sort) to automatically sort columns every time your data refreshes. Simple hack, modern workaround, and advanced dynamic method—all in one practical tutorial.
