Multiple datasets

Can you have multiple datasets in a dashboard?  I've enable Preview option - DirectQuery for PBI datasets and AS, but can't add other data sources.  Like to add multiple streaming datasets and other DB/xls sources, and be able to model and View Data.  Also, don't see Modrling - Make changes to Model option.

Hi  @jtanajewski ,

According to the test, I can add another data source here.

I first obtained data through Power bi dataset, the connection mode was Live Connection, and then I converted it to DQ mode, and finally successfully added an Excel data source.

If we are in DQ connection mode at the beginning, we can see the Data window, but there is no data in it.

Data window does not exist after converting from Live to DQ.
