Power BI Desktop file (.pbix) documentation — generated automatically with the customization, screenshots, and analysis your Microsoft data stack actually needs.

Pick exactly what you document

Easy Customization for Every Power BI Report

The problem

Power BI provides no native way to export a structured documentation of a .pbix file. BI teams manually document DAX measures, data sources, and report pages in Word — a process that takes hours and goes stale with every publish.

How RapidDox solves it

Choose exactly what to include — report pages, measures, tables — and exclude internal fields that don't belong in stakeholder documents. Add custom headers and footers. Generated automatically every time.

  • Include or exclude any section or table on demand
  • Custom headers, footers, and brand styling
  • Add background context where business stakeholders need it
  • No scripting, no Power BI APIs, no version dependencies

Designed for non-technical readers

Dashboard Screenshots Inside Power BI Documentation

The problem

Hand-written Power BI documentation is field names and DAX formulas — useless to executives and business stakeholders. They want to see the report, not just read about it. Screenshots end up in scattered files or pasted as an afterthought — never in context alongside the definitions that explain them.

How RapidDox solves it

RapidDox builds a dedicated screenshot section into every report page of the generated document. Import your visuals once and they appear in context — right alongside the measures, columns, and data sources that define each page. Business users get a complete picture, not just a wall of DAX.

  • Per-page screenshot sections built into every generated document
  • Built for non-technical business stakeholders to read end-to-end
  • Intuitive desktop UI — no DAX, scripting, or coding required
  • Get useful documentation in minutes, not hours

Inspect without opening Power BI

Analyze DAX Measures, Custom SQL & Unused Objects

The problem

Need to see the DAX behind a measure? Find a piece of custom SQL embedded in a query? Identify unused fields cluttering the model? Today that means opening every report in Power BI Desktop and digging through tabs and panes.

How RapidDox solves it

RapidDox surfaces every DAX expression, every parameter, every piece of custom SQL, and every unused object in your Power BI file — all without opening Power BI. Inspect the entire report from a single screen.

  • Browse every DAX measure and calculated column in one searchable view
  • List custom SQL and parameters across the file
  • Identify unused fields, calculations, and parameters
  • Works on .pbix and .pbit files locally on your computer

Word, Excel, PDF, HTML, CSV

Export Power BI Documentation in Every Format You Need

The problem

Auditors want PDF. Engineers want CSV. Executives want a polished Word document. Manual Power BI documentation rarely produces all formats — and never with consistent content across them.

How RapidDox solves it

Export the same source-of-truth Power BI documentation as Microsoft Word, Microsoft Excel, PDF, HTML, or CSV. Edit the Word version freely. Pipe the Excel/CSV into another database or back into Power BI for further analysis.

  • Microsoft Word (.docx) — fully editable for stakeholder reviews
  • Microsoft Excel (.xlsx) and CSV — pipe into databases or Power BI
  • PDF — formal handoffs, governance reviews, audits
  • HTML — internal portals, wikis, knowledge bases
