is there a tool for cross referencing pbix's etc to data sources automatically

Hi, i think this would be a challenge for data flows and perhaps other service only types of artifacts, but is there a tool that could profile which tables etc are used by which pbix's (rdls too).  It would be a cross reference for project planning purposes.

Hi @db042190 ,

 

Well, you could look at the lineage view in the service.  The other way to get this information would be to use the Power BI Rest API's.  You can build a pretty good metadata report for yourself by using the API's.
