Five Ways to Increase the Accessibility of Your Power BI Reports
summary
A concrete checklist: replace vague labels with page title DAX or descriptive visual titles so each chart names metric, currency and years; set tab order via the selection pane or “have tab order match visual order” so keyboard and screen reader navigation follows reading order; measure color contrast with Accessibility Insights and aim for 3:1 and 4.5:1 (graphical vs text) ratios; add conditional alt text that states chart type, purpose and active filters; never rely on color alone—add shapes or symbols.
