Connect To Multiple PowerBi Online Workspace Datasets in one Desktop Report?

Hi there, 
I am trying to connect multiple PBI online datasets to my one desktop report. 

However, when I go to Get Data> Power BI Datasets, I am only allowed to use one and if I try to add more, I get this message. 

Do I have to enable something to get multiple? Or is there a workaround?


Thanks!

Hi @UserIsGod ,

Try clicking Make changes to this model in the lower right corner of the desktop, and then connect anther dataset.

I would recommend that you use a desktop to connect to the data source, both for modeling and maintenance.
