External Tools - Missing from Ribbon
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.
The accepted solution is correct and here's more information: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=jScicVBrr0s
However, be aware that if you have installed Power BI Desktop or the external tools in a drive other than the C drive (like I have), you may get an error message saying "Unable to launch external tool - DAX Studio executable not found. Contact the tool author for support". This is because the JSON file that is installed defaults to drive C. I had to manually modify the JSON file to the correct path to get it to work. I'm sure the providers of these external tools will fix this in a future release, but hope this gets you going.
