What does the "Data View" in Power BI allow you to do?

The "Data View" in Power BI provides a comprehensive look at the underlying data model of your imported data tables. In this view, users can examine the actual data contained within their tables, enabling them to inspect, analyze, and manipulate the data more closely.

In Data View, you can also perform tasks such as adding new calculated columns, creating measures, and editing data within your tables. This capability allows for a deeper understanding of the data structure, relationships, and overall integrity of the data being used for analysis and reporting. By working in this environment, users can ensure that their data is accurately represented and ready for visualization in the reporting stages.

The other options, such as creating new visualizations, sharing reports, or exporting data, pertain to different functionalities and views within Power BI, specifically focused on presenting and distributing insights rather than directly handling and maintaining the data model itself.
