To start using this feature, you must first enable live editing from the preview options menu in Power BI Desktop. Then, select your semantic model in Direct Lake mode from the OneLake data center and choose the “Edit” option from the “Connect” button dropdown.
Live editing enables real-time changes to semantic models, resulting in a more efficient and seamless workflow. Each modification is applied directly to the model in the workspace, improving the data modeling experience. Additionally, this feature offers the familiarity of Power BI Desktop and the ability to export to Power BI (PBIP) to support professional business development workflows.
Whether you need to create new measures, add calculation groups, establish relationships between tables, or run DAX queries, Direct Lake mode simplifies the process by allowing direct access to data from OneLake.
Users can now perform natural language romania whatsapp resource queries on your semantic model using Q&A visuals. Previously, OLS-based models were unable to take advantage of this functionality. However, this limitation has been removed, allowing OLS-based semantic models to support Q&A.

Connected tables in Excel are now available in Semiannual
The new Connected Tables feature in the Power BI Datasets add-in for Excel is now available in the Semi-Annual Channel. This feature makes it easy to integrate Power BI data into your Excel spreadsheets by creating connected tables directly in Excel. This not only streamlines the data onboarding process, but also makes it more accessible to a wider range of Excel users.
