What is an NBIX file

NBIX files mostly belong to Power BI. NBIX files are backup archives used mainly for Power BI data. They store backup information in a JSON format, which makes the file both machine‐readable and accessible with specialized tools.

Primary use: They hold backup data for Power BI, often tied to Microsoft SQL Server environments.

Internal structure: The JSON-based format supports easy parsing and restoration operations.

Alternate use: Some NBIX files are associated with backup archives from solutions like NovaBACKUP and Acronis True Image.

FilExt.com note: To open and view an NBIX file, use the official backup or restoration applications provided with Power BI or related Microsoft SQL Server tools. For more information on associated technologies, visit Microsoft SQL Server.
