DAX Debugger

Add capability to debug DAX code i.e. being able to step through DAX code, add Watch for expressions and variables and most importantly, be able to view the table/DATA change according to the current row/filter context in the code step

Relationship tracing when debugging DAX is required especially if there is a possibility of ambiguous relationships or bidi.

Microsoft Power BI team please provide an update on this. This is mandatory for all other coding languages (and DAX is unlike most other coding languages). DAX studio can only do so much to decipher filter context and formula logic. Moreover, when DAX functions work in conjunction (e.g. context transition), the end result can be completely altered. A step by step highlighting on the DAX formula at points of evaluation, interim tables, context transitions, etc. is definitely needed. Thanks.

Would love to get an update on this. Debugging your DAX code can sometimes take forever. Having the functionality where you are able to highlight the points of evaluation in your DAX code would be a huge time saver. The trace dependents/precedents functionality in excel would also be a great additional functionality to view which measures are dependent on other measures.

Please add a debug procedure, DAX is getting more complicated and we need a way to debug the code. At least add the evaluate&log functionality inside desktop
