Dataset Server Settings

In PBI Service, I choose the 3 vertical ellipses to the right of the dataset name to get more options.  Under the More Options selection I choose Settings, and in there I have a selection for Server Settings.

This is populated with the URL, with the blacked out portion being our Workspace name and dataset name. I can copy/paste this URL as the server name in our on-premise SSAS and view the entire data model in SSAS.  I could even use that as a data source for other PBI reporting if desired.  It's as if during the publication of the model from Desktop, it also created a copy of the model in SSAS.  I'm looking at other clients I"ve had in the past, and this Server Settings option isn't even visible.  The question is, what is this?  Is there something about the installation of Power BI at this client that allows this?  I don't hate it - I just don't understand how it's making this "model" in the on-premise version of SSAS.

That explains alot.  I've only dealt with Pro license clients, so I've never seen this before.  Thanks!
