Power BI Premium XMLA read and write
The XMLA interface is now also available in “write” mode (Public Preview). This means that your current SSAS Tabular Development on SQL Server on-premise or Azure Analysis Services can now be deployed directly after Power BI Premium. In general, Public Previews are very stable and you don’t have to wait until September 2020 for the final release. Various community tools can now also be used. The goal is to be able to download these models as pbix again, but this functionality is not yet available.
