    RE: Import a tabular model into powerpivot and/or power bi designer

    In my interpretation of the Idea, this WAS NOT completed!

    Can I connect and query a tabular model? Yes
    Can I IMPORT the model from SSAS Tabular to Power Pivot or Power BI? No

    PLEASE allow us to port models from 1 technology to another. This is HUGELY beneficial for branching and incremental development.

    Hi Miguel,
    You have mistakenly provided the import excel workbooks into power BI desktop link.I think it should point to this link:https://support.powerbi.com/knowledgebase/articles/665278-analysis-services-tabular-data-in-power-bi-desktop

    W/O the ability to draw from analyzed data from Excel, I am much more likely to not make the leap to BI.. And just continue the charting i am doing from Excel pivots.

    RE: Import a tabular model into powerpivot and/or power bi designer

    Is this request talking about importing a SSAS Tabular (model / data) into Excel's Power Pivot and/or Power Bi Desktop OR something different? I thought that is what it was saying, but looking at posts it sounds like something different as well.
