Partitioning of deltatables and directlake mode

Anonymous — Fri, 11 Apr 2025 14:23:27 GMT

Hi - am experimenting with directlake mode connection from a deltatable to PowerBI.

Can the direct lake mode take advantage of partitioning of the deltatable? One use case would be that a report has a single-select slicer, loading only one partition at the time into memory.

Cannot read this out from the available documentation.

yes, if your filters match the partition definitions.
