Hi all, I am connected to a published dataset. I can add measures but the the capability to add a column is greyed out. Is that not possible? TIA
Solved! Go to Solution.
Hi @DPCCGF ,
This is possible, you need to add a local data transformation into Direct Query storage mode.
Hope it helps!

@DPCCGF you can only add measures, not calculated columns, it has to be done at the source dataset.
