    Hi. Datamarts are so new that it might have many features that are not there yet. This is one of them. There is nothing related to backups yet. Stay tuned with the power bi announcements, maybe in the future months something might be shown there.

    If you want to manage version you can just open a PBI Desktop and connect to the Azure SQL Database instead of using the auto generated direct query dataset.

    Any update on this?   I was unable to open my Datamart...so I had to recreate it.  Took a lot of time.  It's a single point of failure.  I've got to be able to backup the Datamart.  Any way to do this?
