Hi, 

I think you can try to utilize INFO.DAX functions in Power BI.

Or, you can also untilize those in Fabric notebook to search for all information in the capacity, if you have Fabric capacity.

 

Please check the below picture and the attached pbix file, and the link down below from Microsoft.

Hi @powerbiexpert22 

 

There is an external tool called model documenter which automatically creates a pbix of a documentation of a semantic model

The tool can be installed using Business Ops external tools installer - https://community.fabric.microsoft.com/t5/Power-BI-Community-Blog/Business-Ops-The-largest-collectio...

Use Tabular Editor. Connect to your Power BI workspace, then run this C# script:

 

// Count objects across all datasets
var models = Selected.Models;
foreach(var model in models) {
Console.WriteLine(
$"{model.Name} - " +
$"Tables: {model.Tables.Count}, " +
$"Measures: {model.AllMeasures.Count()}, " +
$"Columns: {model.AllColumns.Count()}"
);
}
