You can rename the pbix file to zip and extrac the zip file to get to the source code files.  If you do decide to change the xml code, I recommend pulling the file out of the zip, modify it and drag it back in the zip file, rather than extracting the whole zip file.

@SomnathPatil,

You can copy your M codes for each of your query in Query Editor (right click on each query and choose Advanced Editor) if using Import mode
