  • Q1
    What is the primary purpose of using field parameters in Power BI as explained in the video?
    To allow users to dynamically switch between different axes or measures in charts
    To apply a filter across all reports
    To automatically generate reports without user input
    To change the entire theme of the report

  • Q2
    How can you create a field parameter that allows switching between different measures in a Power BI chart?
    Create a new report for each measure and switch between them
    Use a pre-existing Power BI template with measures already set
    Manually adjust the measures in the chart every time
    Use the "Modeling" tab to create a new field parameter and link it to the desired measures

  • Q3
    What is a key benefit of allowing users to switch axes dynamically using field parameters in Power BI?
    It limits the options users have, making the report easier to understand
    It enhances user interactivity and allows for customized data exploration
    It locks the report design, preventing unauthorized changes
    It simplifies the report creation process

  • Q4
    When setting up a field parameter, what is an important consideration to ensure smooth user experience in Power BI?
    Create as many parameters as possible without linking them
    Use only one parameter for the entire report to avoid confusion
    Allow users to modify the parameters directly in the data model
    Ensure that the parameter is linked to relevant fields and measures for intuitive switching

  • Q5
    In the video, what technique is used to maintain performance while using multiple field parameters in a complex Power BI report?
    Using only text-based measures to reduce processing load
    Avoiding the use of field parameters and sticking to static reports
    Creating multiple reports instead of using field parameters
    Limiting the number of fields linked to the parameter and using slicers strategically

  • Q6
    How can you combine field parameters with slicers to enhance report interactivity, as demonstrated in the video?
    Use slicers to filter data based on the selected field parameter
    Use slicers only for filtering by date and ignore field parameters
    Avoid using slicers with field parameters to keep the report simple
    Create separate slicers for each possible axis or measure combination

  • Q7
    What should be done if a field parameter is not reflecting changes in the visualizations as expected?
    Check the relationships and ensure the parameter is correctly linked to the fields or measures
    Delete the parameter and recreate it from scratch
    Ignore the issue as it will resolve automatically
    Increase the number of fields linked to the parameter

  • Q8
    Why is it recommended to test field parameters thoroughly before deploying a Power BI report to end-users?
    To remove any unnecessary parameters that might confuse users
    To create a backup of the report in case of failure
    To prevent the report from being too interactive and overwhelming users
    To ensure that the parameter works as intended and does not cause any unexpected issues

  • Q9
    What is the role of data labels when using field parameters to switch measures in a chart, according to the video?
    They are not necessary when using field parameters
    They serve as a decorative element with no functional purpose
    They automatically adjust the chart axis
    They help to clearly indicate which measure is currently displayed, enhancing the clarity of the chart

  • Q10
    In which scenario would using field parameters in Power BI be particularly advantageous, as discussed in the video?
    When creating a static report with no need for user interaction
    When working on a report that will not be updated or interacted with frequently
    When analyzing data that is highly specific and does not require different perspectives
    When creating a dashboard that needs to cater to multiple audiences with different data needs
