Planned beta features

Extracts complete metadata from any Power BI file (PBIX, PBIP, or PBIR) into a structured Excel workbook. PBIX files are automatically converted via a built-in converter. One command, full picture.

25+ sheets including: Dataset, Page Metadata, Selected Visuals, Visual Containers, Slicer Metadata, Text Boxes, Buttons & Shapes, Pictures, Visual Properties, Edit Interactions, Filters, Field Parameters, Bookmarks, Hierarchies, Relationships, Security Roles (RLS), Perspectives, Translations, Calculation Groups, Calculated Tables, Manual Tables, Measure Dependencies, Model Metadata, Expressions, Report Settings, Report Health — plus 6 RDL sheets.

Rewrites an entire Power BI report to point at a different dataset. A 6-phase visual wizard maps tables, columns, measures, hierarchies, calculation groups, and field parameters. Rewrites TMDL model files (the text-based semantic model format), PBIR JSON, and DAX expressions.

6-phase wizard. Full bidirectional sync. All Power BI object types.

Cross-references documentation output to detect: ghost slicers, ghost visuals, orphaned hidden pages, duplicate slicers, empty containers, unused measures and columns. Detects report-layer usage that model-only tools miss.

Catches usage in visuals, filters, and bookmarks that purely model-side tools miss.

Compares two Report_Documentation.xlsx files and produces a structured diff: adds, removes, modifications — per sheet, per row. Generates Markdown summary for PR comments. CI/CD exit codes: 0 = no changes.

CI/CD ready. Works in any pipeline that can run a Python command.

Shows every transitive dependency of every measure, column, and visual. Identifies what is safe to remove without breaking the report.

Full backward BFS walk from report-layer usage through model dependencies.

DAX Studio-like performance observability via XMLA. Connects to a live Power BI model — locally through an open Power BI Desktop session or remotely via Premium/PPU/Fabric — and profiles queries, benchmarks measures, detects performance problems, and generates a structured Performance_Report.xlsx.

Visual scoring (0–100), model efficiency metrics, 5 diagnostic detectors (expensive visuals, measure risk, table scan, high cardinality, wide tables), snapshot comparison, and regression testing.

Exports a report as a sanitised, portable bundle (.reportbundle.zip): strips datasource references, credentials, and connection strings. Ready to share or distribute.

Portable format. Share securely without exposing connection details.

Connect to a Power BI workspace via Fabric API or XMLA endpoint (Microsoft's administration protocol for Analysis Services). Browse workspaces, manage reports, and document online datasets without manual download/upload cycles.

Planned for beta testing. After beta, online operations are disabled until Pro launches.
