Automatic translation of tabular model

Hello community,

Automatic translation of tabular model using Tabular Editor and Excel is possible since the Power BI team gave read/write access to the XMLA endpoint.

Please watch this presentation video :   https://thebipower.fr/index.php/2020/04/12/automatic-translation-of-tabular-model/

Do you know if visuals metadata will be accessible with XLMA endpoint in the future so we can easily translate visuals titles, tooltips, ... ?

Best regards

Hi everyone, @v-lili6-msft 

 

Here you find tool for reports (.pbix) translation - Power Translate! Very clear and easy to use, moreover the tool has been verified by MS AppSource.

 

Power Translate — an indispensable tool that will help you translate display elements (such as titles, headers, name of measures) placed in the Power BI created reports.

 

Here you can find also video with instruction - AppSource - Power Translate.

This tool looks great!

I suppose it translates the layout Json file. In this case, we need to create and publish as many files as translations languages. Am I right ?
