Every time when i create a query PBI creates automatically the relationship when it finds the sames column name.
How can avoid it and create them manually?
I suppose there is a option somewhere but i dont find it
many thanks

Solved! Go to Solution.
Hello @Alessandro70
In Power BI Desktop, go to the File menu.
Select Options and settings → Options.
In the Options dialog box, under Current File (or Global if you want it for all files):
Go to Data Load.
Uncheck "Autodetect new relationships after data is loaded".
(Optional) You can also uncheck "Import relationships from data sources on first load" if you don’t want PBI to pick up existing DB relationships.
Click OK.
many thanks
