What are the best practices for managing Power BI version control and report updates?

Power BI consultant use version control tools like Azure DevOps or Git to track changes and manage report versions. They maintain a clear naming convention for different report versions and regularly back up data models and report files. Before rolling out updates, consultants test reports in a sandbox environment to identify potential issues. When deploying updates, it’s important to communicate changes to stakeholders and ensure a seamless transition by minimizing downtime. Regular auditing of reports and documentation of changes are also best practices.
