I'm trying to deploy a property dataCoverageDefinition in my semantic model's partition.
I need this for a hybrid model setup, where one partition is set to direct query, and the other one to Import.
According to the documentation, an additional property needs to be deployed to the directquery partition to make sure Power BI does not perform any unnecessary queries in direct query mode.
Compatibility has been set to 1604.
Property has been set into the DirectQuery partition.
Script runs succesfully, but the property cannot be found when re-opening the script of the datamodel.
When reviewing the performance analyzer, Power BI still performs unnecessary direct queries when the requested data is clearly data stored in the import partition.

Hi @HSpeelman ,
It seems like you’re doing everything correctly according to the documentation. The property should indeed provide a hint regarding the data that is covered by the partitionDataCoverageDefinition. This property is supported when the compatibility level of the database is at 1603 or above, which is the case in your situation (1604).
However, if the property is not found when re-opening the script of the data model, it might be due to some issues with the deployment process. You could try using the Deployment Wizard for deploying model solutions. It uses JSON output files generated from an SQL Server Analysis Services project as input files, which are easily modifiable to customize the deployment.
