Consistent Compatability Levels SSAS & PBI Versions

I am trying to move my pbix model to a VS project in order to have some functionality that is missing in PBI Desktop. However, the compatability level available on SSAS is currently 1500 compared to 1520 on PBI Desktop. Versions of servers are different as well with the latest for SSAS being 15.0.18333.0 and on PBI Desktop being 15.1.40.25. If I try replacing a VS model.bim file and try to open in I get errors as some settings are not available. Is there to be an updated template for VS or an equivalent release for SSAS that is the same as PBI Desktop. Any suggestions would be useful.

      I did. I opened the PowerBI model in Tabular Editor and then saved to Model.bim file and replaced the VS model.bim file. This is where there is a difference in Compatability and settings in the later version than available through VS.

        I would have tried to deploy the model from the tabular editor to the tabular SSAS instance first.
        PBIT -> SSAS Tabular -> VS

    Hello, I'm refreshing this topic to ask if anything in above subject has changed?

     

    Can we somehow deploy  "defaultPowerBIDataSourceVersion": "powerBI_V3" to Analysis Services?
