DAX function "RELATED" does not work between DirectQuery and Import tables.

[Anonymous]

When using the DAX function "RELATED" to add a new column from an Imported table to a DirectQuery table, I receive an error. This error does not occur if both tables are using DirectQuery.

Column: SampleColumn = RELATED(ImportTable[Column])

Error: "The column 'ImportTable[Column]' either doesn't exist or doesn't have a relationship to any table available in the current context."

Relationship: DirectQueryTable[SampleKey] (many) has a relationship with ImportTable[SampleKey] (one)

Cardinality = Many to One (*:1)

Cross filter direction = Both

Make this relationship active = Checked

Note: When creating the column using "RELATED" in the DirectQueryTable table, ImportTable shows up as a suggestion.

Hi MS Team, any updates on when this update will get implemented?

Just checking in, @v-qiuyu-msft and @PBICommunity MS Team...

Seems I'm the most recent, of several checking in / adding to the general request for an update regarding this issue.  Any info, eta, general progress and/or "bandaid" workarounds (in the meantime) would be a big help. 

Thank

Same issue.

Is there a workaround while this hasn’t been fixed?

Is there any solution to this yet? This post is 3 years old at this point and from what I can tell it is still a problem.
