Combining different PBIX dataset
- 3 years ago
Hi Madhumnair,
Yes, It's Possible !!
You can establish a live connection to a shared dataset in the Power BI service, and create many different reports from the same dataset.
----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Step 1 - Open power bi report
Step 2 - Enable 'DirectQuery for power bi datasets and AS' feature in the power bi report.
To enable, go to File -> Options and Settings -> Options -> Preview features -> Select checkbox for 'DirectQuery for power bi datasets and AS' -> Click Okay.
Step 3 - Add Datasets into power bi report
Add Dataset of Report1 and Report2 one by one in the report.
In this way, we can use multiple datasets in the power bi report.

Connect to datasets in the Power BI service from Power BI Desktop

Thank you !
Thankyou arpit2196 . This solution worked .
Need to set the source Dataset in directquery mode. And also you get an option to select the relevent tables to be linked. The remaining queries and aggregation need to be set in the New PIBX (the combined file).
