Filtering and sorting data in Power BI are key steps in refining datasets for analysis. Filtering removes irrelevant records based on specific conditions, while sorting organizes data in ascending or descending order for better readability and analysis. Both operations can be performed in Power Query Editor (before loading data) or within the Power BI report view (after loading data).
