titleUsing the Ask a Question Feature


Power BI has an Ask a Question Feature that allows you to ask a question of the report data using your own words. The feature lets you explore your data using multiple presentations.

Tip
titleHelpful Hints

The results are interactive as you type the question.

You can add elements to an existing question, e.g., you can add "by gender" at the end of the question "Count of student UID , campus = USF Tampa, Card = Attend Orientation, Card Status = No" and the display updates automatically.

You can select an existing question and modify the options; the Q&A displays suggestions as you type.

You can choose different ways to display the data. Some of the typical ways to display are "as table," "as matrix" or "as bar chart."


Here are some examples of questions you can ask:

  1. Show me Completion percentage by card and cohort sort and gender and ethnicity
  2. Show me count of student UID , campus = USF Tampa , card = Attend Orientation , card status = No , cohort sort = 201908 - Fall 2019 by college
  3. Show me count of student UID , campus = USF Tampa , card = Attend Orientation , card status = Yes , cohort sort = 201908 - Fall 2019 sort by student UID
  4. Completion percentage by card and gender and ethnicity for cohort sort = 201908 - Fall 2019
  5. Count of Student uids by year(start date),month(start date) for cohort sort = fall 2019 as table
  6. Show me card, not_completed #, cohort sort = 201908 - Fall 2019 , sort by Not_Completed # as table
  7. Showmecountofstudent UID,campus=USF Tampa,cohort sort=201908 - Fall 2019bycollegeascolumn chart




Tip
titleData Refresh

To provide the most current data for all users, the reports are refreshed four times daily:

  • Data tables refresh at 8:00 am, 12:00 pm, 2:30 pm, and 1:30 am. The Data Refreshed On value in the bottom left of your view displays the most recent database refresh.
  • The reports refresh at 9:00 am, 1:00 pm, 3:30 pm, and 2:30 am. The exact day and time displays in the report Header when you click "Data updated mm/dd/yy".

The report refresh typically takes around 10 minutes.
