dashboards.
For each of the following views or environments, match the name to the definition:

2 Importing Data - Nulls and Blanks

Missing, blank or null values can cause a lot of problems in Power BI, and in other business intelligence
tools. It’s important that you understand the difference between these concepts, and how to deal with
each of them.
Match the names to the definitions:
Nulls
Your Answer
Represents the absence of all data. No data has been collected or entered.
Correct Answer

Explanation
None.
3 Importing Data - Handling Errors

We can often find errors in our data and need to deal with these errors in the most effective way
possible. This includes fixing the error now, but also ensuring an error won’t occur when the data is
refreshed later.
What happens when you click on the error link when your data is loaded?
Your Answer
A duplicate of your query is created in the Power Query editor, which is filtered to show only rows with
errors.
Correct Answer
A duplicate of your query is created in the Power Query editor, which is filtered to show only rows with
errors.
Explanation
None.
4 Simple Visualizations - Basic DAX

5 Simple Visualizations - Highlighting Key Messages

It’s not enough to come up with a great analysis. To add value to a business, we need to focus on
communicating those results in the most effective manner.
Why is conditional formatting so important when creating a dashboard?
Your Answer
It can help highlight key messages and trends of a dashboard
Correct Answer

Explanation
None.
6 Working with Dimensions - Relationships

Power BI, Power Pivot, and DAX more generally are built around the concept of data models. Data
models connect related tables of data using relationships. There are several relationship settings we can
modify, including related columns, cardinality, filter direction, and status.
Which of the following best describes the cardinality of a data model relationship?
Your Answer
Helps enforce the integrity of a data model by stating whether values should be unique in the matching
columns, or whether many duplicates can exist.
Correct Answer
Helps enforce the integrity of a data model by stating whether values should be unique in the matching
columns, or whether many duplicates can exist.
Explanation
None.
7 Working with Dimensions - Slicers

Slicers are one of the simplest ways to filter a Power BI report.
When creating a slicer, what does the option edit interactions do?
Your Answer
It allows you to pick which visuals will change when the slicer value changes
Correct Answer
It allows you to pick which visuals will change when the slicer value changes
Explanation
None.
8 The Date Dimension - Creating a List of Dates

Whilst it is strictly possible to do Time Intelligence without a date table, the date table makes this much
easier. In this course, the date dimension table was created in Power Query; but even within Power
Query, there are many different methods of doing this.
Open your Advanced Query Editor. Which of the following would correctly create a list of dates in the
Power Query Advanced Editor?
Your Answer
let
StartDate = Date.From("01/01/2017"),
EndDate = Date.From("12/31/2019"),
SourceDates = List.Dates(StartDate,Number.From(EndDate)-
Number.From(StartDate)+1,#duration(1,0,0,0))
in
SourceDates
Correct Answer
let
StartDate = Date.From("01/01/2017"),
EndDate = Date.From("12/31/2019"),
SourceDates = List.Dates(StartDate,Number.From(EndDate)-
Number.From(StartDate)+1,#duration(1,0,0,0))
in
SourceDates
Explanation
None.
9 Advanced Visuals - Maps

Maps require a special kind of data, to help us visualize data on geographic areas.
What can we do to help Power BI interpret our map data correctly?
Your Answer
Ensure the data category for Geospatial Data is defined as explicit as possible.
Correct Answer
Ensure the data category for Geospatial Data is defined as explicit as possible.
Explanation
None.
10 Advanced Visuals - Tooltips

Which of the following is true about tooltips? Select ALL that apply.
Your Answer
Tooltips help communicate supporting information, without cluttering our visuals.
Tooltips can be modified in the visualization pane.
Correct Answer
Tooltips help communicate supporting information, without cluttering our visuals.
Tooltips can be modified in the visualization pane.
Explanation
None.
11 Advanced Techniques - CALCULATE

DAX gives us powerful formulas that help us create measures and manipulate context.
In the following visual, we have a list of products and product categories, which define the row context
of each data point in our visual. We also have a few metrics already populated. In the final column,
you can see total category sales.
Which of the following would correctly calculate the total category sales? Remember, the row context
for each row of the table already filters Product, and Category.
Your Answer
Sales_Total = CALCULATE( [Sales] , ALL( [Product] ) )
Correct Answer
Sales_Total = CALCULATE( [Sales] , ALL( [Product] ) )
Explanation
None.

CALCULATE can be used in many ways to modify the context of a calculation. This includes using the
CALCULATE function in combination with other functions.
Match the combination of functions to the outcomes:
CALCULATE
Your Answer
Calculates the result of the measure in the current context
Correct Answer
Calculates the result of the measure in the current context
CALCULATE with logical condition
Your Answer
Replaces the context of the chosen column
Correct Answer
Replaces the context of the chosen column
CALCULATE with FILTER
Your Answer
Adds additional criteria to the measure context
Correct Answer
Adds additional criteria to the measure context
CALCULATE with ALL
Your Answer
Removes filters applied to the specified column or table
Correct Answer
Removes filters applied to the specified column or table
Explanation
None.

What would you expect the following formula to do?
CALCULATE( sum[Rent], filter( StoreDetails, StoreDetails[StoreID]=99 ) )
Your Answer
It adds a further condition to the filtered context. Specifically, it sums the rent of all stores with an ID of
99.
Correct Answer
It adds a further condition to the filtered context. Specifically, it sums the rent of all stores with an ID of
99.
Explanation
None.
14 Advanced Techniques - Bookmarks

Navigate to another report page
Navigate to another report page with a predefined set of filters
Correct Answer
Reset the report filters
Navigate to another report page
Navigate to another report page with a predefined set of filters
Explanation
None.
15 Working with Others - Sharing Reports
