Whether you're using Power BI alone or building with the full Microsoft Fabric platform, everything starts with tenant settings. And in my experience, this is where things quietly go wrong.

Some organisations open everything because no one knew better. Others lock everything down because the admin isn't Power BI or Fabric-savvy and caution felt safer. Many configure settings once and never revisit them. And almost none communicate what's been set to the people building reports and pipelines, leaving developers confused when something simply doesn't work.

In this session, I'll walk through the tenant settings that matter most and the decisions behind them. This isn't a documentation walkthrough. It's about understanding the trade-offs, spotting the gaps, and knowing what to ask for when you're not the one holding the keys.

We'll cover:

- Where defaults can quietly work against you
- Security, sharing, and governance: where the real decisions live
- What's changed recently and what to watch for
- How to audit your current setup and communicate decisions across your team

Whether you're an admin configuring tenant settings, someone who inherited a setup you don't fully understand, or a developer who's been blocked and didn't know why, this session will give you the clarity to make sense of it all.
