SCCM Current Branch Power BI Reports

This dashboard is a new design, has more information and built with current branch in mind.

If you never had the opportunity to use the previous iterations of the ConfigMgr dashboard, it utilizes Microsoft Power BI to connect to your Microsoft Configuration Manager database and display powerful visuals and data about your environment. It replaces the old Power BI dashboard and is designed to work on Current Branch versions of Configuration Manager.
