I have a large set of tables in sql database approx 300 tables with possible between 10 GB to 25 GB and I want to provide a dashboard for someone else in department to these databases. We cannot allow them have access to the sql server. I tried query or manually selecting the tables, but the process freezes everytime. Any suggestion to help with this issue? I found you can use some python scripts or something.
Thanks for the link but any idea on how to automate the process? Also quickly skimming the link it does not seems to address how these 300 tables can be imported into power bi without running out session cache
Fundamentally a Power BI dataset behaves like a SSAS Tabular instance. You can apply all the scripts and automation that you are used to from SSAS, with the DMV queries and the XMLA partition management etc.

Not even read acess?
