Cannot View Measure Definitions on a Downloaded Report
Anonymous
As I mentioned in my previous post, you could check the souce dataset at the bottom right.. In my case, my report is connected to dataset "Email Test" in "BI-Dev" workspace.
There are certain limitations.
Keep in mind that when you rename the column/measure name in the orginal dataset, it will appear as a new column/measure and all the visuals that used the old name will be broken.
If this helps, mark it as solution.
Kudos are nice too.
Hi Anonymous ,
What data source you are connecting to ? What connection mode was applied ? The available views tab is different depending on the data source and connection method . For example , the data source you connect to be SQL Server, and the connection mode is Import , then " Report " , " Data " and " Model " view tabs are all available . However , if applied direct query connection mode with same data source , " Report " and " Model " view tabs are available .
Besides that, if connect the data with Power BI dataset or SQL Server Analysis Service(connection mode: live connection), then only “Report” tab is available. If your scenario is same with this, you have to update the measure in original dataset/model.

Rena,
You are correct. The report was devolped using a dataset via the service. So now I understand why I can't see the measures. The interesting part was going into the data source settings where it didn't tell me what datasource/dataset was being used.
Thanks again for your help - greatly appreciated!
