    Hi, amien 

    The Tabular Editor does have some features that can help with this migration. You can create a new Direct Lake semantic model in Tabular Editor 3. When you create the model, make sure the Direct Lake check box is selected. Use the Tabular Editor to migrate tables and columns from an existing import model to a new Direct Lake model. This can be done manually or using a C# script. You can check the followng link:

    Direct Lake Semantic Models | Tabular Editor Documentation

     

    There are scripts that can help automate part of the migration process. For example, simplify migration by leveraging the Semantic Link feature in Microsoft Fabric. You can refer to this link:
