My Power BI dataset (on Premium capacity) currently has display folders that show up when I connect to it.
When I switch to a DirectQuery connection with Dec 2020 Power BI Desktop
the display folders disappear, as shown here:
Are you able to fix this?
Thanks, mark
Hi @tuttlem ,
One is the status in service and the other is the status in desktop. Their default display styles are different.
What exactly do you need? There may be some alternatives
Best Regards,
Liang

@V-lianl-msft I'm not sure what 'status' you're referring to. I'm specifically referring to the displayfolders, which we use to organise a few hundred pre-defined measures.
My issue has to do with display folders in Power BI Desktop, but I assume the Power BI service has the same problem.
