Are you a "designer" or a "consumer" of data?
The way you interact with Power BI will depend on your unique role within your team or organization. In Power BI 101, we learned about these roles (such as “designers” versus “consumers”) and primarily focused on designers. In this course, we’ll be taking a closer look at Power BI service and mobile apps. This means that if you’re a “consumer” (for example, if you receive reports and work in Power BI service), this Power BI 102 course will target you and your role.
