ALM toolkit works great.  I do recognie that Datasets modified by using the XMLA endpoint can't be downloaded to a .pbix file, but the issue that I am having is that a report connected to that dataset once I have made modifications using the ALM toolkit also cannot be downloaded.  No issues with other reports in the workspace connected to other datasets which have not been modified using ALM.  Any help would be appreciated.  Has anyone come across this issue and found a solution?

Hi @Marcin ,

How did you connect to the model? As the post here: it currently doesn't work with the local Power BI Desktop AS instance. When we open up the XMLA endpoint on Power BI (soon), it will work with the Power BI service in the first version.

Hi @v-frfei-msft ,

I tried to connect to my local PowerBI desktop file model.

Thank you for information.
