Support with powerbi Desktop

[tameismael]

Dear PowerBi Community Members,

It's my pleasure to start naviagtion here and getting to know the powerbi desktop in a closer perspective. thanks for all the efforts you are providing to the newcomer those who newly join the powerbi's community.

I'm a new memeber here and I'm new to powerbi desktop as well i just started a job as data and reporting analyst. I was kindly wondering if i have a sensative data to share with the users in order to get the issue solved, how can i send a private message and how fast i can get the anwser ? 

Can you please also advise how to get a link to the common questions and answers of other members , i meant issues have previously solved so i might don't need to send a message on that ? 

thanks in advacne for the support,

@tameismael  Welcome to the Power BI Community!

Posting in the public forum is the quickest and best way to get a response, so if you have sensitive data it's best to share the info you can (ie column names, relationships, cardinality). If you can generate some dummy data that replaces the sensitive info with random data that is perferct. If you want one on one help, many of us provide consulting services too. 

All the solved posts can be searched: https://community.powerbi.com/t5/forums/searchpage/tab/message?advanced=true&allow_punctuation=false... though I find a Google search actually works really well for finding the answers to solved questions - you can see from Google before you click the link if the post is solved or not. I found lots of answers to my questions in that way while I was still learning and actually never had to write my own post! 🙂 

Sometimes you just don't know what to search for, so that's when popping your question in here with as much detail as possible without giving sensitive info can help us point you to the right links or posts. 

Enjoy Power BI and look forward to seeing you around the forums!

How to Get Your Question Answered Quickly - Microsoft Power BI Community

Before posting your question, you can search for similar problems in search engines or forums using keywords, perhaps there is already a good solution that can help you beforehand.

Such as:

If you have a new idea that has not been addressed in the latest version of the desktop feature, you can post your idea here. if there are a lot of votes, Microsoft will officially add this feature in the next update.

We also have a lot of excellent engineers, their blogs are also great, I suggest you can use it as a reference usually.
