Introducing Explore - a new way to explore data right within Power BI.
summary
Explore is a new in-product Power BI / Fabric canvas that opens from a report command bar, Data Hub, workspace list or a Data Mart SQL result and starts with a matrix pivot-like start and a synced visual pane with auto-charting and small multiples. It uses a co-pilot data overview that combines semantic-model calculations (not just LLM text) to summarize ranges and counts, supports top-N filters, secondary axes and quick filters, and can save as Fabric artifact or export to report — currently saving requires contributor role and premium workspace, viewing needs read on the model.
