Hi Anonymous ,
You can download the PBIX file to local. Then follow these steps:
1. For data sources, you can get it from
- "Home" -> "Edit Queries" -> "Data source settings";
- Or, unzip the zip file and open "DataMashup", referring to What makes up a Power BI Desktop PBIX File.
2. For Tables, columns and Measures, you can get them through Power BI Helper.
You can also export them out to htm file.
