You can access and visualize your selector insights data not only via the FoxBase workbench, but also via Microsoft Power BI .

The following article provides an overview of the import of selector data into Power BI and the correct authentication. Details on using Power BI and creating graphics can be found directly at Microsoft. Click here to get to the instructions.
