Put Copilot Metadata Where Your Team Can Review It
Power BI is evolving its Copilot feature to enhance the semantic model's role in AI understanding. This shift emphasizes the importance of reviewing and versioning metadata, which should now be included in source control. The integration of Copilot metadata into the model lifecycle aims to improve the quality of AI responses and overall report accuracy.
- ▪Copilot in Power BI is now integral to defining how AI understands business data.
- ▪Metadata related to Copilot will be stored in a designated folder within the semantic model project.
- ▪Changes to Copilot metadata should be reviewed alongside other model changes to ensure consistency.
