Synopsis

Power BI is now under the umbrella of Microsoft Fabric.

You were that reluctant Power BI admin. You have noticed things have changed; you want to put controls in place and try things out. But you simply do not know enough to make changes in your company tenancy confidently. After all, you only have one tenancy.

In this session, I shall show you how to create a Microsoft developer sandbox with 25 M365 E5 Developer licenses.

Enable Microsoft Fabric and point out some pitfalls I’ve fallen into when transitioning from Power BI Admin to Fabric admin.

  • Microsoft Fabric is more than just Power BI
  • Creation of Office developer Sandbox
  • How to enable Microsoft Fabric in this developer sandbox
  • A tour of Admin features
  • Least privileges
  • Documentation Objective

Confidence comes with iterative practice with a Microsoft developer sandbox, you have that chance to practice Microsoft Fabric admin, break then fix things, see the impact on the supplied 15 users, prepare the Changes and roll back.

So let’s work with a fictitious airline company and set up Fabric. You also go away with lots of links to Microsoft documentation so you can keep up with the rapid changes.

The John Peel Theatre's Robin Hood The Pantomime Opening Night Success

Image
  Showcase Cumbria attended the first opening night of the well-awaited and anticipated Robin Hood The Pantomime at Wigton's historical and award-winning John Peel Theatre.  It was attended by all ages as well as the attendance Wigton Mayor Christopher Scott who all enjoyed the show. Written by David Ross, this version of Robin Hood The Pantomime has all the hallmarks of a classic Panto but has it's own take with lovely surprises and turns, much to the delight of the those watching.  It pulls also from the story of Robin Hood but stands as it's own creation taking recognisable parts of well-known stories, music and movies and rolling it into one, which is both brilliant and witty.  It kept everyone engaged till the end, from the fun boos and to the awwws. There were plenty of laughs, clapping and smiles. ( Even forgiveness, when yes, I didn't managed to get the hints from the cast to find the ladder straight-away under my seat that was meant to be passed to the Merry...
