Hi All,
Trying to get some clarification around DirectLake and views- specifically what views are not supported?
According to this article (https://learn.microsoft.com/en-us/power-bi/enterprise/directlake-overview)
Currently, Direct Lake models can only contain tables and views from a single Lakehouse or Data Warehouse.
and
Tables based on TSQL-based views cannot be queried in Direct Lake mode. DAX queries that use these model tables fallback to DirectQuery mode.
I'm looking for some clarification on the difference is between "views" in the first sentence and "TQL-based views" in the second.
Thanks,
DJ
