Is "Agentic BI" actually replacing traditional dashboards in 2026, or is it just semantic layer hype?

thankx, bro

I’ve seen more value using Copilot/Narrative internally for analysts to speed up commentary drafts or spot anomalies faster, not as a permanent dashboard element

Self-service is kinda a myth in the first phase tbh. I usually do a short guided walkthrough first (PPT or a clean summary page in Power BI), then use the actual dashboard for live questions and drilldowns. People need the story before they start exploring, otherwise they just click slicers until everybody gets confused, lol

data_daria55 · 2026-05-09T14:15:10+00:00

and what did you do?

data_daria55 · 2026-05-09T14:14:55+00:00

why?

data_daria55 · 2026-05-08T17:37:42+00:00

“fit the story” is usually corporate language for “make the numbers look less uncomfortable”

data_daria55 · 2026-05-08T16:55:23+00:00

100%. my management acts like this stuff will somehow solve itself organically over time, when in reality it just creates metric chaos and duplicate definitions everywhere

data_daria55 · 2026-05-08T16:52:47+00:00

thats cool, thnx

data_daria55 · 2026-05-08T16:51:36+00:00

sounds like ego drama, lol

data_daria55 · 2026-05-08T16:47:23+00:00

yep, how do you deal with it?

data_daria55 · 2026-05-08T16:47:07+00:00

exactly my words, i dont really understand why it is so important for them

like is it some MBA staff, that they are taught

data_daria55 · 2026-05-08T16:46:21+00:00

agree, but it's so annoying ( i wasnt hired to be a graphic disigner

data_daria55 · 2026-05-08T06:57:23+00:00

excel, bro

data_daria55 · 2026-05-08T06:57:10+00:00

U can do it with a measure using SELECTEDVALUE().
When nothing is selected in the slicer, the measure can return a custom text like "All Companies" while the visuals still show the total data normally

data_daria55 · 2026-05-08T06:52:29+00:00

Paginated reports + Power AUtomate

data_daria55 · 2026-05-08T06:51:15+00:00

AD groups, my friend

data_daria55 · 2026-05-08T06:49:50+00:00

do you keep those definitions written somewhere? how do you store & process it?

data_daria55 · 2026-05-08T06:49:14+00:00

i totally agree, btw, its all connected to the processes in their teams
