Needs VotesAdd SSAS Tabular Translations using Live Connection in Power BI Service
on 20 Apr 2018 01:11:34
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)

RE: Add SSAS Tabular Translations using Live Connection in Power BI Service
I tested this with Power BI deskptop September 2019 connecting to SSAS 2016. The columns are translated as expected, but table names are ignored. Still looking for a solution to also change the tables names based on the locale settings of the user.

The strange thing is; With a matrix my translation is working but with a table it isn't

According to this: https://docs.microsoft.com/en-us/business-applications-release-notes/April19/business-intelligence/planned-features
This feature should be released May 2019
RE: Add SSAS Tabular Translations using Live Connection in Power BI Service
I found some info here, but unable to interprete how the translations will be implemented, are only the field names translated, or is it possible to take the value from translated fields depending on the locales... no clue, the description is not clear at all, and no specification....
"Power BI users see dataset fields in their client locale or language when translations are defined in the dataset or Analysis Services model."

Is there any progress with this idea? We need it desperately! It used to work in previous PBI versions but now it doesn't!
RE: Add SSAS Tabular Translations using Live Connection in Power BI Service
Translations are foundamental 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..
