Dataflow vs import mode Performance efficiency
Dear All, If I want to load all dimensions tables from dataflows vs all dimensions in import mode in the same pbi model, which is more performance efficient? Can you please help me with this. ...

Hi,
For performance this will really depend on the size of your data and the extent of the transformations.
E.g: If you're going to do significant data transformations Dataflows might be more efficient as it allows for centralized data preparation and reuse across multiple reports. However, for large datasets, importing directly from SQL Server could be more efficient as it avoids the overhead of storing the data in Dataflows.
