power-bi-report-design-consultation

Decision-led Power BI report guidance for chart choice, layout, interaction, mobile use, and accessibility.

Best for

Analysts designing Power BI reports for executives or operators

What you get

Clarify the decision + Design the report

Main limitation

Produces recommendations, not a connected Power BI report or validated DAX model.

First risk

Generic design advice presented as validated accessibility. A checklist cannot prove keyboard, screen-reader, contrast, mobile, or task performance in the finished report. Test the actual Power BI artifact with representative users and current accessibility tools.

EVIDENCE FRESHNESS

Three checks, kept separate

A recent source check is not a runtime test or security audit.

30-SECOND BRIEF

What it does—and when it fits

Power BI Report Design Consultation is a GitHub Awesome Copilot guidance workflow for connecting business decisions and audiences to chart selection, information hierarchy, color and typography, interaction patterns, mobile layouts, accessibility checks, and a phased design specification.

Medium

Generic design advice presented as validated accessibility

A checklist cannot prove keyboard, screen-reader, contrast, mobile, or task performance in the finished report. Test the actual Power BI artifact with representative users and current accessibility tools.

  • Use synthetic or masked report data during design reviews.
  • Keep business metrics and row-level-security rules out of public examples.

Not a security certification. External ratings are attributed references. SkillSignal has not independently executed or security-reviewed this Skill.
