Please see the organizational deployment guide

2. Get the package into your environment

  • Open Source or Commercial:
    • Proxy Repository - Create a proxy nuget repository on Nexus, Artifactory Pro, or a proxy Chocolatey repository on ProGet. Point your upstream to https://community.chocolatey.org/api/v2/. Packages cache on first access automatically. Make sure your choco clients are using your proxy repository as a source and NOT the default community repository. See source command for more information.
    • You can also just download the package and push it to a repository Download

3. Copy Your Script

choco upgrade measure-killer -y --source="'INTERNAL REPO URL'" [other options]

See options you can pass to upgrade.

Add this to a PowerShell script or use a Batch script with tools and in places where you are calling directly to Chocolatey. If you are integrating, keep in mind enhanced exit codes.

If you do use a PowerShell script, use the following to ensure bad exit codes are shown as failures:


choco upgrade measure-killer -y --source="'INTERNAL REPO URL'" 
$exitCode = $LASTEXITCODE

Write-Verbose "Exit code was $exitCode"
$validExitCodes = @(0, 1605, 1614, 1641, 3010)
if ($validExitCodes -contains $exitCode) {
  Exit 0

Description

Cleaning up your Power BI tenant
Measure Killer can help you clean and optimize your tenant and datasets. This can drastically reduce dataset refresh times and thus lower the memory and CPU usage of your Premium capacity. You can run our tool on all models in your tenant to remove unused columns and measures.
This mode shows you on a tenant level in which reports custom visuals are used or what is going on in personal workspaces. It can analyze the whole tenant in a short time and provide unique insights regarding report-level measures, calculated columns or best practices violations. There is also a new access tab showing workspace, artifact and user-level access.

Deleting unused measures
Measure Killer can identify and remove unused measures. The tool can write to the model directly to remove them. Don't worry if you made a mistake, the restore feature can help you out.

Deleting unused columns
Measure Killer will generate an M-Code to delete unused columns. This code can be pasted into Power Query's Advanced Editor to remove these columns from the model. Calculated columns can be removed directly by writing to the model (locally or in the Power BI Service)

Analyzing reports
For every report analyzed, Measure Killer will generate a comprehensive Excel file to show where an artifact is used. This can be in: Measures, Visuals, Filters, Conditional Formatting, joins in Power Query, or other parts of a Power BI Report such as Relationships.

In cases where actual malware is found, the packages are subject to removal. Software sometimes has false positives. Moderators do not necessarily validate the safety of the underlying software, only that a package retrieves software from the official distribution point and/or validate embedded software against official distribution point (where distribution rights allow redistribution).
