>> We've talked before
about how sharing of data
and collaborating
on the insights that you find
brings much more value
to that data,
and you can do that
from right here
within the Power BI
mobile applications.
For example, for any of these
dashboards or reports.
I can tap and hold
or right click on them,
and invite people
directly to this dashboard.
Type in their e-mail address
and they'd be able to...
It would show up then
in their list of dashboards,
just the same as doing that
through the service.
I could do the same thing
from within one of these
dashboards as well,
while I open up
one of these tiles.
I've got an option
to invite people
from up on the top
right hand corner as well.
The same thing applies
for the Windows Phone
mobile applications as well.
So from here,
just on the list
of dashboards and reports,
I can tap and hold one of these
and choose to invite
somebody directly,
or I can click through
to one of the tiles.
And I see a little Invite button
at the bottom.
One thing I can also do
on both the desktop
and mobile applications
is share an insight
from a particular tile
or visual that we found.
So for example,
I'm here you know,
I'm seeing
there's a real decline
towards the end of this year.
So I can hit that Share button
in the bottom right hand corner.
And now it will use
any of the Windows
sharing applications
to allow you
to e-mail somebody
with an image of that tile,
or send it through a message,
or even share
on Facebook or Twitter
if you really wanted to do that.
I'm going to share it
through my Microsoft account.
And you'll see
an e-mail gets generated
with the visual
from that tile embedded in it.
And I can add in
an e-mail address
and put any comments
or anything along with this
when I share it
to one of my colleagues.
The iPhone application's
even better.
Let's take a look at that one.
So here,
when I'm looking
at a particular tile
within a dashboard,
let's take this,
let's take Gross Margin
one again.
Not only
can I hit this little icon
in the top right hand corner
to share,
but I actually
get a chance to edit
the image before it gets shared.
So I can start drawing on this,
I can circle particular areas
that are of interest
or I can type text.
And I can use things like
little smiley indicators
or arrows
or whatever to point out
particular problems as well.
So now when I hit Send again,
this will give me
the same options to choose,
how I want to go and share this,
whether I want to e-mail it
or save it as a note
or whatever it might be.
So I can actually
start annotating these things
before I send them off
to my colleagues.
So sharing those insights
that you found using
the mobile applications
is really, really simple
and really, really powerful.
