    Anonymous  The answer is Partially Yes. You can get the code behind the steps that are performed in "Power Query Editor" by selecting "Advance Editor" (where you can see the auto M-code generated) but where as in Data Pane you need to get all the calculated columns/Tables and Measures logics manually to your presentation.

      Thanks for the reply! However, that is not what I am looking for. I need the code behind the canvas. i.e say I use a table, a pie chart, a slicer in the report. I would like to see the code which is behind that. I hope I am being clear enough.
