Real-time data integration in Power BI is achieved through DirectQuery mode, streaming datasets, and integrations with Azure Stream Analytics. Power BI development configure pipelines to ingest live data from IoT devices, transaction systems, or social media platforms. These pipelines ensure that visualizations and dashboards update instantly, enabling users to track KPIs in real time. Push datasets are another feature used to send real-time updates to Power BI dashboards. This capability is particularly valuable for industries like logistics or finance, where timely decisions based on live data are critical.
