Restrict Power BI Integration Button in Microsoft Lists

Power BI and integration to Sharepoint Lists have been with us for some time. Some can turn them on, or only specific groups of users can access them. But what to do if we have an open company policy so that everyone can use it, but then we have a specific List for which we would instead not show the integration? A JSON schema definition will help us.

It may sound a bit recursive, but let's get this data into Power BI using Power Query so we can start creating reports from it. Why to leave your favorite tool when there is no need for that at all.

Conditional Formatting based on Field Parameters

Conditional formatting. It can sometimes seem like magic, what a few colors that appear at the right moment can do. Of course, the same applies to text, labels, and the like. However, with the advent of field parameters, it became necessary to look at the issue of conditional formatting from different perspectives. For example, how to prepare it for a particular scenario, should the user have the option of single-selection or multi-selection within the parameter, and whether we help anything with the formatting?
