Creating relationships in power bi service

Hi,

I need some advice on this.

An external consulting party created a Snowflake DW for us which holds all the dim and fact tables we use on daily basis and in many different PBI dashboards. Ofcourse all the relationships have been made in Snowflake. Is their a way (or multiple) i can create like a dataflow or datamart, create all the relationship so that we only have to connect to this source (flow/mart) and PBI desktop automatically brings in all the created relationships ass well?

 

Any ideas on this?

@Evandam You can create a datamart and establish the relationships in the dataset using the Modeling feature for Datamarts. You can then connect to the dataset created using either Live or DirectQuery for Power BI datasets. I have a video on it.
