Powerbi Report Planning

Build a guided requirements-to-implementation workflow for new Power BI reports and dashboards from semantic models, datasets, or PBIP projects. Use when the user wants to: (1) plan then implement a report, (2) define audience, scope, page plan, design direction, dependencies, and delivery target, (3) create a locked report spec with approval before PBIR authoring. For direct edits to existing report files, use `powerbi-report-authoring`. For design-only critique or redesign, use `powerbi-report-design`. Triggers: "build me a dashboard", "create a new report", "plan then implement", "define and build Power BI report", "walk me through creating a report".

Use it as a brief only while the linked SKILL.md remains available and the risk boundary is still accurate.

1-Minute Read

What it is

Powerbi Report Planning packages instructions from microsoft/skills-for-fabric into a reusable agent skill brief. The original source is a public SKILL.md file, so the brief can point readers back to the executable workflow instead of a product landing page.

When to use it

Use it when a user asks for help around powerbi report planning and the agent needs a repeatable workflow, checklist, or review path rather than broad background information.

How to test it first

Open the linked SKILL.md, confirm the trigger and procedure still match powerbi report planning, list the risk boundary, then ask the agent to apply the smallest read-only step to a sample task.

Watch out

Do not present this as a generic app or platform. Keep the scope tied to microsoft/skills-for-fabric. Risk boundary: git state, commit, branch, PR, or push actions require explicit repo-owner approval before mutation; CI/CD, deploy, release, rollback, and migration steps must start with read-only inspection and an approval gate; database, Fabric workspace, notebook, lakehouse, warehouse, or Power BI changes need credential and production-data approval; cloud resources, RBAC, credentials, tokens, and private keys must not be changed or exposed without a separate approval; Microsoft Fabric-specific workflow; do not describe it as a generic data engineering skill.
