This step focuses on visualizing the data being sent from the IOT device based on the inference results captured by the model and stored in Azure Blob Storage using Power BI to display.
Download and launch Power BI Desktop
- Connect to your Azure Blob Storage Account by selecting Get Data.
-
Follow the setup as it asks for the storage account name and connection string. The connection string can be found under Access Keys in your storage account resource.
-
Select the container with the data you want to load.
-
If you want to select any particular columns/rows or clean up any data headers (and we suggest you do this to make the visualization process easier), select Transform Data. Otherwise, to load all raw data, select Load.
-
Once the blob(s) is loaded, select Binary in the table to adjust the Power Query.
-
After you are finished, select Close and Apply.
-
Spend some time exploring different visualizations in Power BI and choose one you want to use for your data or create your own! A good place to start is with the New Visual feature found on the Home tab.
- For inspiration and ideas on how to visualize your data, visit Power BI's theme gallery.
