We are missing metadata in results of the Power BI scanning API. Currently the API does not expose metadata about Power BI artifacts in the report, such as PBI Visuals, calculated measures/columns, filters & etc. For us this means we cannot automatically populate our data catalog with information about the attributes in a report and its data lineage. We can only get Power BI dataset information and lineage which is not detailed enough and not an accurate representation of artifacts in Power BI report.
