When connecting to a tabular model, you should be able to modify connection string.

I have a tabular model
Which I use translations on. I want to be able to modify connection string so the model always use a desired language. (locale identifier = 1033).

hi, just for sake of understanding (and learning), how do you intend to use this?

As I understand, PowerBI uses the actual "names" for displaying data..

So I assume this cannot be used for developing one report/dash and displaying it in multiple languages? (build once, use many)

As the names within the model would change if you switch to a different language.
