How do I bind data to a Power BI visual?
power-bi-visuals uses field references in Table[Column] notation to bind semantic model data to visuals.

This approach works across all supported chart and card types.

Can I add slicers and perform bulk operations?
power-bi-visuals supports slicer creation for filtering and bulk operations across multiple visuals. Add a slicer, bind it to a field, then use bulk selection to manage many visuals together—resize, reposition, or delete them in one action. This is especially useful for organizing complex report layouts efficiently.
