Using SSMS to refresh PBI tabular model in portal
Hi!
Any ideas what I'm doing wrong here?
I have a workspace in premium capasity. I used SSMS to connect to tabular model. When I try to process either any database or table within a database I get this error message. My desktop version is July 2020 and preview feature for enhanced dataset metadata, which is as I understand the V3 mentioned in error message below.
Could the problem be following: I have earlier created the report. Now I returned to switch on the new preview feature. So the query in guestion is now updated? Should I first enable the preview and then create a query from scratch?
Hi GoingIncognito ,
Glad you found the solution.
To be additional, Power BI returns the following error if you perform a refresh via the XMLA endpoint against a model without enhanced metadata.
For details, you can refer to the following document.

Thank you. One, hopefully last question:
When default compatibility level is, but at the same time a singular database level within it is as low as 1465
What should be updated? SSDT? PBI desktop? I thought July edition supported enhanced metadata format?
And enhanced metadata format is set ON as preview feature:

My compatibility level is < 1500 so that is the problem. Bummer.
