Will the current metadata format be dropped?

[Sergiy]

Hi,

As of today enhanced metadata format is in preview. What happens when it goes to GA? Will there be two metadata formats at the same time: current and enhanced? Or will the current one be dropped?

I'd be very grateful for letting me know. 

I've got a file that works without any hindrance in Power BI service now. When I apply a new metadata format for this file it seems to get broken when is being published to the service. I can still analyze the data but I am not able to refresh the dataset any more. In Parameters section there are no parameters defined any more. Instead, all I could see there is a message “Parameters haven’t been defined for this dataset yet…” 

Unfortunately the ticket (120031822002515 ) I submitted didn't bring any result. 

That's why I am so anxious to know if the current metadata format pesists to exist

@Sergiy Currently there are many challenges with Enhanced Meta Data and since it is in preview, I'm sure there are tons of bug. I believe once it is in GA, most likely it will be bug-free and I believe there will be a setting to turn this on/off but too much unknown. I guess wait-n-watch.

I would ❤ Kudos if my solution helped. 👉 If you can spend time posting the question, you can also make efforts to give Kudos whoever helped to solve your problem. It is a token of appreciation!
