BEFORE YOU USE IT
Risks to review before use
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.
SECURITY
What the permission profile means
- 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.
