Hi everyone,


I am not sure, if DataMarts will be developed further, but if the feature stays (which would be great) we would like to give feedback on some pain points:

  • It would be nice, if DataMarts can be moved to different workspaces
  • There is an issue in creating a DataMart and using the "Transform" features, if you are using a non-us browser: The DataMart is internally created (I guess) with the regional settings "English (US)". If additional elements (tables) are added, it is tried to use the regional setings of the browser (here: "German (Deutschland"). This results in a "regional encoding cannot be changed later" error message, if it is tried to save the changes.
  • If several elements (tables) are added and there is somewhere a problem, the error message is almost non-readable (tiny) and worse, there is no information, for which of the elements the problem occured.
  • DataMarts (and in general DataLake solutions; this also applies therefore also for DataFlows Gen2) cannot be used by service accounts, thus not by Power BI Embedded reports using the "app owns data" approach
