Re-use an existing dataset & add more tables to it

Hi

 

Is there a way to re use an existing dataset & add more tables to it? Any workaround possible?

 

I know we can try PBI service but it only allows new measures, NOT NEW TABLES.

 

thanks a lot!

Hi @abhitiwa

 

Did you try on the desktop version to add a PowerBI service source ? 

Here is a tutorial :

Hope this will help

Hi @quentin_vigne

 

No, PBI services doesnt help. since it does not allow to add NEW TABLES.

@abhitiwa

 

I don't think that's possible at the moment.
If you have the pbix file you can still edit it and add new tables, but not from the dataset.
