我可以在 Power BI 中利用 Azure 认知搜索吗？

Question

I am able to find enough blog/posts on how to use Power BI to analyze Azure cognitive search data. But what I am looking is exactly opposite of this.

Can we use Azure cognitive search inside/for power BI reports to query on power BI data? Basically a search bar in power BI or anywhere in app that can do the following: -

1. Query on Power BI data sources and return visualization. for example:- top 5 hotels by people visited result in relevant visualization.
2. smart enough like Azure cognitive search to understand human search errors.

FYI I have already explored QnA visualization of power BI, but I still want to explore the possibility of leverage Azure cognitive search instead of that.

I have my data stored in sql server in Azure VM and Azure blob storage .

is it possible? if yes can someone please share relevant links/videos to help me accomplish that.

Answer 1

Azure Cognitive Search can send operation logs and service metrics to an Azure Storage account, which you can then visualize in Power BI. Refer this document for detail description.

Power BI provides access to a set of functions from Azure Cognitive Services to enrich your data in the self-service data prep for Dataflows. The services that are supported today are Sentiment Analysis , Key Phrase Extraction , Language Detection , and I mage Tagging .

These options are running based on the power of Azure Cognitive Services. These Azure services are leveraged within Power BI by a few simple clicks. For more details refer this document .

You can build the Power BI solution with Azure Cognitive Services, without using the Power BI Premium for more details refer this document
