    Hi Vivek_ta ,

    Thanks for reaching out to the Microsoft fabric community forum.

    To better understand and provide the right guidance, could you clarify a few things? Specifically, what data source are you working with (SQL Server, Synapse, Excel, etc.), and are the column descriptions already defined somewhere like extended properties or a metadata table? Also, how do you plan to use these descriptions in Power BI do you want them as tooltips, a reference table, or something else? Lastly, do you need the descriptions to update automatically with the data, or is a static import fine? Any additional detail would really help us point you in the right direction.

     

    Looking forward to your response.

    Best regards,
