Calculation group in Tabular Editor removes default aggregation from all fields

Hello there,

 

I am using new external tool feature in Power BI to use Tabular Editor external tool to create calculation groups. The issue is that when I create a calculation group using Tabluar Editor, I can not use any fields directly from the data model in the charts. Meaning I cannot drag and drop any fields from the data model as value in the chart.

Before using Tabular editor on the Model, If I drag and drop any field from the data model in the chart, it will take default aggregation such as count, sum etc. But after creating Calculation Group using Tabular editor, Power BI does not allow me to drag and drop any fields directly into the chart.

Is this itentional and how can I overcome this?
