# Power BI Live Metadata Scanner

Plan live metadata discovery before assuming source structure.

## Output Contract

- Target systems, access method, authentication owner, and scan scope.
- Objects, columns, measures, relationships, refresh settings, lineage, labels, owners, and usage signals to collect.
- Metadata risk findings: missing keys, unclear dates, duplicate measures, stale objects, missing owners, and sensitive fields.
- Follow-up actions for modelling, KPI governance, data contracts, RLS, and documentation.

## Checks

- Do not request or store secrets.
- Separate scan plan from actual source extraction.

## Runtime Executor

For Power BI tenant metadata discovery, create a credential-safe request payload:

```powershell
python scripts\powerbi_expert_factory.py tenant-scan-request --tenant <tenant-id> --workspace <workspace-id> --out outputs\runtime-executors\tenant-scan-request.json
```
