External Tools - Missing from Ribbon

I've downloaded the July update but am missing the External Tools tab from the ribbon. Am I missing something or does it have limited availability?

rodjarman , You need to lastest version of power BI and Latest version One of three tools.

I had an old version of Dax studio, it did not come. I updated Dax studio to the latest version, it came.
