Is there a quick way to extract all the datasources from a single .pbix file. Just i am documenting a report and need to quickly extract them all (20+) When i mean datasource i mean the connecting string.....which are like the first 3 lines in the advanced query editor.
Source = Sql.Databases("1n.n.0.nn"),
Reporting = Source{[Name="Reporting"]}[Data],
dbo_MonthlySales = Reporting{[Schema="dbo",Item="MonthlySales"]}[Data],
you know how there is DAX studio for extracting & working with the datamodel & measures ...is there something similar to extract all the Power Query/Get Data datasources ?
Also would help if we could extract all the datasourcesfor the "Manage GAteway".
That way i can run a quick check that all data sources are set correctly on the GAteway and checck them against the list oof data sources in the .pbix file...
Any suggestions out there plese ??
