    Hi Winds ,

     

    Do you want to create a semantic model with data from Lakehouse?

    As far as I know, currently Power BI doesn't support us to achieve this goal directly.
    I suggest you to create a Dataflow in Power BI Service and then create a semantic model by this Dataflow. The Lakehouse connector is a beta connector. And we need to create dataflow manually.

    For reference:

    Power Query Lakehouse (Beta) connector - Power Query | Microsoft Learn

    Where to get data - Power Query | Microsoft Learn

     

    If you want to learn more about sensitivity label, please refer to this blog: Sensitivity labels from Microsoft Purview Information Protection in Power BI - Power BI | Microsoft Learn.

    Hi Winds ,

     

    As far as I know, for the time being, there is only support for manually selecting a Table to create a Semantic Model. The ability to use the REST API to achieve this effect should not be pushed.
