The Ultimate Diagnostics Utility for Power BI, Built for the Web
Optimize data models, clean up unused columns, document custom visual containers, and format DAX expressions. All processed locally in your browser—no file size limits, zero server uploads.
PBIX / PBIT Parser
Drag & drop layout files to inspect canvas metadata, query lists, visible/hidden page counts, and export responsive PDF/JSON audit catalogs.
Performance Auditor
Extract unused visual fields, scan auto date-time tables, analyze column cardinality levels, and review structured model optimization logs.
DAX Formatter & Linter
Format, capitalize, and structure complex DAX measures. Check syntax logic for DIVIDE errors and filter performance sinks instantly.
Side-by-Side Diff Compare
Inspect structural adjustments between two report revisions. Track canvas dimensions changes, visual modifications, and page edits.
🔒 Corporate Compliance & Security Guaranteed
Power BI Helper Online leverages client-side unzipping via in-memory workers. Your data files never leave your workstation. We do not use databases, analytics tracking, or external server APIs for file handling.

Data Model Optimization Workspace
Automated heuristics scan reports against SQLBI and Microsoft model design guidelines
Optimization Review Summary
Our client-side rules engine checked model relationships configuration, metadata naming sizes, date tables, and visualization query mappings. Follow the diagnostic instructions below to clean up model schemas and reduce final file sizes.

Data Model Cleanup Recommendations
The following fields are defined in layout metadata blocks but are **never referenced** in visualizations, report-level filters, custom visual buckets, or bookmarks. Removing unused fields reduces dictionary file sizes and optimizes memory load times.
| Table Name | Unused Candidate Name | Cleanup Impact | Recommended Action |
|---|
DAX Query Studio & Linter
Format nested measures, capitalize operations, and check query syntax against SQLBI design rules

API Integration & Guide
Connecting Power BI Service directly from standard client-side static web apps requires establishing OAuth credentials via Microsoft Entra ID. Below is our step-by-step developer tutorial for registering applications and orchestrating sync protocols.
Registering an Azure Active Directory App
- Log in to the **Microsoft Entra admin center** (Azure portal) using Tenant administrator credentials.
- Navigate to **App registrations** > **New registration**.
- Input a name (e.g.
PowerBIHelperOnline) and specify **Supported account types** (typically *Single tenant*). - Set the Redirect URI to a secure local/web host (e.g. `https://yourdomain.com/auth-callback`).
- Click **Register**. Store the generated **Application (client) ID** and **Directory (tenant) ID** values securely.
- Navigate to **API permissions** > **Add a permission** > **Power BI Service**.
- Enable administrative delegate permissions such as:
Tenant.Read.AllorTenant.ReadWrite.AllWorkspace.Read.AllReport.Read.All
- Grant admin consent for the selected permission blocks.
PowerShell Automation Script
Execute the following automated PowerShell command list to fetch workspace datasets catalog properties directly into standard JSON dumps:
# 1. Install Microsoft Power BI Cmdlets
Install-Module -Name MicrosoftPowerBIMgmt -Scope CurrentUser
# 2. Authenticate to the Power BI Tenant
Connect-PowerBIServiceAccount
# 3. Retrieve and Export Workspace Metadata Log
$workspaces = Get-PowerBIWorkspace -All
$workspaces | ConvertTo-Json -Depth 5 | Out-File ".\PBILogs.json"
# 4. Success Alert
Write-Host "Metadata Export Completed successfully!" -ForegroundColor Green
