    The Power BI Service is the name for the online portal for Power BI, where you publish reports and datasets to.

     

    So, use Power BI Desktop to create your model and publish it to here as normal.

     

    You can then edit this published report in the Power BI Service and add a developer visual, which can then utilise this more complex data model.

When you say "Publish to powerbi service" you mean a custom web service that serves the complex model? Just want to clarify.

    I see, I wonder if PBI Online developer will support multi-datasets in the future?
