How to identiy data source origin when using Semantic Models from Deployment Pipelines

Hi all

 

When I am working on a dashboard which is using a semantic model (in a deployment pipeline), in Power BI Desktop, how can I identify the origin of the semantic model (means from which stage of the deployment pipeline does it come)?

 

Thanks for help.

HI @webchris  - I would prefer to use deployment pipelines in PBI Services, by open the dataset that your report is connected to.In the Workspace, look at which deployment pipeline stage the dataset belongs to.If you have permissions, navigate to Deployment Pipelines (from the left panel) and check where the dataset is currently located.

Hi, thanks for your reply, but this is not what I am asking for.

 

I know that I can find the Semantic Models in the workspaces belonging to a Deployment Pipeline. But - by design - they have identical names in all stages of the pipeline.

 

My question is more, why do I not the the Source Stage of the Semantic Model (is it from DEV, Test or PROD) in Power BI Desktop.
