Multyple datasets for same file

Hi,

 

I want to create 2 datasetrs in the same file so I can use both of them for one report.

 

Can I do this with the desktop app?

You can get data with Import mode from different data sources. For example you can get many tables from an excel file and a SQL database in one PBIX file. Then you can use the data from different imported tables in one report.

You can import as many tables as you need into a data model, but it is only 1 dataset.

I will not give you bad advice, even if you unknowingly ask for it.
