Hi, my user wants history on computer profiles that would be taken once a month for each computer. The records would have computer name, date recorded and things like freespace, bitlocker protection, OS, location , owner etc etc. The purpose of this is to support a compliance report.
we can easily set up ssis to do this. its small data.
the question is, with no special licensing (we all have pro) and no workspace upsells (we have what comes out of the box), can we record history in/from pbi 's semantic model instead of using etl? Perhaps by scheduling the refresh on the 1st of every month and somehow recording the date along with all attributes for that day's profile of that computer? and having a way of keeping it in a growing repository of history without resorting to saving it in excel manually?
