DAX function "RELATED" does not work between DirectQuery and Import tables.

When using the DAX function "RELATED" to add a new column from an Imported table to a DirectQuery table, I receive an error. This error does not occur if both tables are using DirectQuery.

Column: SampleColumn = RELATED(ImportTable[Column])

Error: "The column 'ImportTable[Column]' either doesn't exist or doesn't have a relationship to any table available in the current context."

Relationship: DirectQueryTable[SampleKey] (many) has a relationship with ImportTable[SampleKey] (one)

Cardinality = Many to One (*:1)

Cross filter direction = Both

Make this relationship active = Checked

 

Note: When creating the column using "RELATED" in the DirectQueryTable table, ImportTable shows up as a suggestion.

Hi @Anonymous ,

Hi,

 

Is this issue resolved? 

 

I am getting the same error when trying to use RELATED between direct query table and import table.
