Support the creation of DAX calculation groups in Power BI Desktop - otherwise Power BI can only consume calculation groups created in Analysis Services, whereas it would be very useful to have this feature in any Power BI model.
Even just a simple text window with a script would be fine. You can clean up the UI later.
Thanks.

This would be a great time saver!
As stated in the idea, a simple text-based UI would be a good start.

'Can you please help me with an issue. Do I need to buy a license to share reports with my colleagues? What option do I have - is it possible to buy for instance 1 license costs 9.99$ per month to share reports through Microsoft teams with all my colleagues from 1 PC where reports are created.

Would be great if you can explain me this issue and any support would be helpful

Best Regards,

Why not expanding this idea to "gain feature parity between the PBI engine and SSAS tabular engine"? It would be amazing if a dataset/model could be exported from PBI to SSAS tabular and vice verca.

You will get the Rice Purity Score after you complete the test. Rice Purity Score indicates the Innocence and Purity. 70-80 is also good score.
