Create Q&A featured questions for Power BI dashboards
APPLIES TO: ❌ Power BI Desktop ✔️ Power BI service
If you have edit permission for a dataset, you can add your own featured questions to that dataset. Power BI Q&A will show those questions to colleagues who consume dashboards based on that dataset. Featured questions give your colleagues ideas about the types of questions they can ask about the dataset. The featured questions you add are up to you -- add popular questions, questions that display interesting results, or questions that may be hard to phrase.
Note
Q&A featured questions are available for use in the Microsoft Power BI app on iPads, iPhones, and iPod Touch devices, and in the Power BI service (app.powerbi.com). Creating the questions is only available in the Power BI service.
