Dashboard In A Day (DIAD) connecting to data

Episode 2 in a series about how to use Microsoft’s Dashboard In A Day (DIAD) dataset to understand the basics of working with Power BI. See the link below to download the dataset.

In this episode we take the first substantial step in a Power BI project and connect to the data, using a large CSV file, an Excel workbook with multiple pages and a folder containing several CSV files that we will get the system to automatically combine together.
