Model/table Information in desktop

Dear Community.

 

 

I have received one pbix file from manager.

 

I checked this way to find the source of the file. but its giving only name of that file, not which sheet is connected which model/table.

** Is it possible to check the model/tables source such as Model/tables has created manually or linking to any sheet.  

 

 

Thanks in Adavance.

Hi @NadeemAhamed 
This is because the data source is an excel file.
Other details are available from the power query.

Hi @NadeemAhamed 

You can check the source URL by going to the Power query editor

Then click on the source option to check the complete URL and excel file name also.
