Install PostgreSQL & Import Excel Data (Step-by-Step) | on Windows
In this beginner-friendly tutorial, I’ll show you how to install PostgreSQL step by step on Windows, create a database and table, and import Excel data into PostgreSQL using CSV—exactly how data analysts do it in the real world.
This video is Part 1 of my series on connecting PostgreSQL to Power BI, where we move away from Excel files and start working with real databases used in professional environments.
🔹 What You’ll Learn in This Video:
✔ How to download and install PostgreSQL
✔ Set up pgAdmin and create a database
✔ Create tables in PostgreSQL
✔ Convert Excel files to CSV
✔ Import Excel/CSV data into PostgreSQL
✔ Prepare your database for Power BI
🔹 Why This Matters:
In real-world data analytics, databases sit in the front end storing clean, structured data, while tools like Power BI act as the back end for reporting and dashboards. This setup improves performance, scalability, and automation.
📌 Next video in this series: Connecting PostgreSQL directly to Power BI and building your first dashboard.
