Helper IIExpert opinion on Incremental refresh choice
Yes, as long as you remember there will be no performance benefit from incremental refresh. Your only benefit will be the unlimited size ( well, 10 GB per partition) and the partition management .
I dont think theres anything like a "deadline" anyways right?"I love deadlines. I love the whooshing sound they make when they pass by." DNA
Super UserPlace the files in a Fabric and access them via Direct Lake connection.
Note: while technically being an option this will incur additional cost.
Helper II🤣 Sorry that I keep messing up. I only mentioned PowerBI tools as they are they only things I have at hand. I do not have access to a Fabric capacity yet (this is a corporate company decision and unbelievably they didnt go with it yet).
I know using only PowerBI tools is totally suboptimal but its what I have sadly, is there no way to even attempt this?
Thanks!

Connect your Semantic Model to the Azure Blob Storage directly. (Caveat must be in the same region)

I hope you are aware that your Power BI Premium days are counting down, and you have to migrate to Fabric if you want it or not.

So I incrementally refresh the semantic model as you did here correct?
Any quick tips as to why chose this option over the other? Just to educate myself a little more on the ecosystem 🙂
I only wish the migration was sooner, would make my life easier in literally every aspect. I dont think theres anything like a "deadline" anyways right?
Many thanks lbendlin !
