AI, Power BI, and Power Automate
Bridge data intelligence and operational workflows. Learn to trigger cloud flows directly from report visuals, extract structured intelligence with AI Builder, and close the loop with automated write-backs.
Like Duolingo, but for AI, Power BI, and Power Automate. Tomo turns the whole topic into a game you play five minutes a day, until it actually sticks.
17 levels across 3 sections, about 34 minutes end to end, roughly 7 days at five minutes a day. It moves through Interactive Triggers and Automated Alerts, AI-Powered Enrichment in Data Pipelines, and Closed-Loop Delivery and Resilient Architecture. It assumes you already know the basics.

Key ideas in AI, Power BI, and Power Automate
- Native Power BI visuals only filter, explore, and display historical or cached data.
- The Power Automate visual triggers external operational writebacks and transactional workflows.
- Embedding flows turns passive analytical dashboards into operational execution interfaces.
- Highlighted visual rows bundle specific records into the trigger body array.
- Active slicer context restricts which entity records are exported to the flow.
- The Power Automate visual automatically passes the runner's Power BI identity.
- A confirmation modal forces users to verify intent before triggering the flow.
- Visual button state switches to 'Triggered' or disabled to block repeat clicks.
- The background flow executes asynchronously while the report UI remains responsive.
- The visual passes bound Power BI data fields as a JSON array of record objects.
- A JSON schema generates strongly typed dynamic content tokens in downstream steps.
- Parse JSON actions interpret custom column headers passed from the Power BI field well.
- Power BI data alerts only support pinned single-metric visuals like cards, gauges, and KPIs.
- Alerts evaluate numeric values only, not categorical or tabular visuals.
- The Power BI trigger in Power Automate fires directly when that alert rule breaches.
- Alert rules evaluate automatically every time a semantic model finishes a scheduled refresh.
You've tried the other tabs
Thirty open tabs. Four facts you actually kept.
You watched. You nodded. By Sunday it was gone.
One answer, then back to scrolling.
Eight weeks. You meant to finish. You didn't.
Tomo gives AI, Power BI, and Power Automate the Duolingo treatment: levels, streaks, and quick quizzes that test what you just learned. That game loop is what the tabs above never had, so it's the one you actually finish.
