Change report name in Power BI Designer

[szymas]

I have pulled data from a MSQL server and the pin has a name of "vst_member_flag" .. is there a way to change the name (which is right now the fieldname value to something more user friendly?

@szymas When working with MSSQL, the best way is to clean the data in MSSQL itself before importing it to Power BI designer file. Else there are couple of method to rename like when importing using get data or right click on field name and simply click rename.

If you want to change the name of your columns, you can do that in different ways, but if you are working on your report and want to change the name directly from there, using right click on your column and then click on rename

If you want to change the name of your dataset, you can also use the same way but with the right click on your dataset

Now, if you want to change the name of your report, you can do that from your powerbi portal, just right click on your report and click on Rename

Renaming report in PowerBI portal is not right way. Very often you have some internal name of report (powerbi desktop file name) and some user friendly public name. I suggest to add name of report into publish procedure.
