Why imported table from onelake is black?

Hi jaryszek,

The black table color in Tabular Editor indicates that the table is in an unprocessed state this is a common occurrence when you add new tables to a semantic model through the XMLA endpoint

When you add a new table via XMLA:

• The table structure is created in the model metadata
• But the table hasn't been processed (data hasn't been loaded)

• Tabular Editor shows unprocessed tables in black to visually distinguish them

For fixing this you need to process the table to load data from your Data LakeHouse:

• Right click on the black table

• Select Process Table

• Choose processing options (usually "Process Full" for initial load)

• Execute the processing operation

Or Use TMSL (Tabular Model Scripting Language):

{
  "refresh": {
    "type": "full",
    "objects": [
      {
        "database": "YourDatabaseName",
        "table": "YourBlackTableName"
      }
    ]
  }
}
