Copy / Combine 2 PBI Files Tabs in 1 file - better way to copy the tabs?

Hi,

i have 2 pbi files with multiple tabs, i would like to combine the 2 into 1

How would i get the tabs from second file in my first file without recreating everything

 

The source tables & relationships are exactly the same, please is the a better approach than recreating the entire tabs?

 

Regards

Hi. If the sources are the same then you might be able to just copy paste from one PowerBi Desktop to another. When the metadata between two Desktops match you can copy paste visualizations and they should work. So get on the page you want to copy and Ctrl+A should select all visuals, then just Ctrl+C (copy) in source file and Ctrl+V (paste) in the final destination file.

I hope that helps,
