Working in Teams - Several developers

[campelliann]

Hi there,

I would like to know how do you work with several developers in PowerBI on the same project. It is my understanding that you cannot have several developers working on the same time on PowerBI Desktop. So how do you usually do it, or you just take turns etc.

Thanks

@campelliann ,

We keep dataset and Visual files separate.

For Dimensions, we try to have dataflow.

This allow few place to work differently

Also, we use the ALM toolkit to merge.

Sometimes when that does not work, we use Tabular editor to create measure as that is faster then copy paste inn power bi
