Technical requirements
In this section, you will need to have your multidimensional model that was created in Chapter 3, Preparing Your Data for Multidimensional Models; Chapter 4, Building a Multidimensional Cube in SSAS 2019, and Chapter 5, Adding Measures and Calculations with MDX, deployed and running (WideWorldImportersMD). You will also need the tabular model we expanded in Chapter 6, Preparing Your Data for Tabular Models, deployed and running (WideWorldImportersTAB).
We will not be working with the workspace version of your tabular models. You will also need the Power BI Desktop client to work through the hands-on work in this chapter. All of the examples in this chapter will use the June 2020 release version of Power BI Desktop. Because Power BI Desktop is updated monthly, some examples may look different for you. If you do not have Power BI Desktop installed yet, you can go to the Microsoft Store and search for Power BI Desktop to get the latest free version downloaded...
