    We need the Powerbi Service to handle translations from a SSAS Tabular using Live Connection. the functionality is already in SSAS, however it doesn't work when the tabular model is published to the Power BI service using live connection.

    It has been working, (although not supported)

    Please!!! Add this ASAP! Definitely needed not only for the sake of foreign language translation, but also as a method of handling and separating "technical" names of measures from "user friendly" names.

    I confirm that translations are important not just for providing usability across multiple countries, but also for changing the name of metadata columns and measures without having to change everything (tabular model, dax formulas...). Please carry on with this idea..

    Is there any progress in adding translation options in Power BI? And also add the possibility to Power BI Embedded?
