This video focuses on the Power BI bar chart visual. I'll look at both the bar chart visual and data bars that can be added to the table visual. These data bars provide more or less the same functionality as bar charts. I'll explore how to set each of these up and the considerations and pros and cons of using each one.

I'll start with an overview of when you might want to select the bar chart visual.

I'll then look at creating and configuring the bar chart and table data bars.

Finally, I'll cover options for applying conditional formatting to these visuals.
