    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 is being worked on! It's a long project but active development has started. Stay tuned for more information. Thanks for all the votes and support!

    This is one of the critical piece we feel is a must have, especially when we are moving towards self-service BI. In out organization, there are many biz users who want to mash the SSAS tabular model data with table(s) from other database or a spreadsheet for proto typing and lack of this feature is making them heavily dependent on IT and forcing us to rethink about the whole idea of using SSAS as a symantec layer. Please prioritize this vital feature.

    Cannot imagine to build more and more new data model , but not just combine the existing one
