Deneb Visuals in Power BI (PBIR)

Use pbir for every report mutation. Read PBIR metadata only for diagnosis. If pbir is unavailable or lacks an operation, stop and report the gap; never edit report JSON directly.

Deneb is a certified custom visual for Power BI that enables Vega and Vega-Lite declarative visualization specs directly inside reports. Author specs using this skill.

Provider Policy

Prefer Vega-Lite for new Deneb visuals unless specific Vega-only features are required (signals, event streams, custom projections, force/voronoi layouts). Vega-Lite is more concise, easier to maintain, and covers most chart types. For advanced Vega features, see references/vega-patterns.md and the Vega documentation.
