Power BI
Under ReviewComposite models when connected to AS models (PBI datasets and Azure Analysis Services)

We really love the new feature of 'Composite Models' in the Power BI July 2018 update! This enables us to join custom lists with DirectQuery sources.
It would also be beneficial if this would also work when connected to SSAS Tabular in DirectQuery.
This would stronlgy improve the enterprise features of Power BI.

This feature is great!
RE: Composite models when connected to AS models (PBI datasets and Azure Analysis Services)
The feature would definitely supercharge Power BI as external data could be easily combined with central data warehouses running SSAS tabular...
I would love to see this feature in upcoming releases.

Connect live to my IT SQL 2016 SSAS Tabular cube with composite modelling is a must and will not only save time and money but will deliver faster results for my key uses. It has to be a must have
RE: Composite models when connected to AS models (PBI datasets and Azure Analysis Services)
Yes, I want this too...I want business users to have that flexibility!We cannot import everything into the cube and if someone wants any adhoc reports integrating excel data and cube data...It adds more value and encourages them to use Power BI. I agree with Avi...it's fact!
