Data flow weight

Hello everyone, a question: How can I know how much weight a data flow has? For example, if a report weighs 12 MB or 110MB, how do I know the weight of the flow?

Thank you for your response j ocean, I just thought about passing it to a report using the JSON, however I also want to know how much I am hitting the CU processing

You could copy paste the queries to a pbix and run it on your desktop, watch the cpu and memory usage in task manager. If youre on premium there's metrics reports. 

Perfect, I’ll try this as a first instance, thanks for the help

If you want the size of the code you can export as a json.

 

If you want to know the size of the data stored, import all tables to a pbix and check the file size.
