Hi everyone,
I am looking for a solution for creating multilingual reports while using DirectQuery to SSAS.
I have tried using the translations in SSAS and that worked (partly) in Power BI Desktop,
but it did not work in Power BI Service.
Does anyone know a different solution (except for creating a separate report for each language)?
By the way; because we are using DirectQuery, we cannot use a solution using parameters.
Thank you in advance,
Martijn

Hi, @Anonymous
As a woraround, you can try Tabular Editor to add the translations of the metadata.
For more details, please refer to these related tutorials.
