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!

When connecting to a live SSAS in Desktop, once you've connected "Get Data" and "Recent Sources" goes gray. Please allow for additional data sources to be added in after making a live connection to SSAS.
