Issue while deploying a hybrid table

Hello,

I am trying to deploy a hybrid table for a Power BI report via Tabular Editor, but I have an error message:

The table is in Import mode at the beginning. I add a DirectQuery partition via Tabular Editor.

Would anyone please help me? Thank you.

Hi @Anonymous ,

 

As the error information said, you might need merge or delete partitions.

For best performance, drop all imported dimension tables that relate to the large fact table, reimport them in DirectQuery, and then change their storage mode to Dual. That’s because currently Power BI Desktop doesn’t let you switch from Import to DirectQuery and there is no workaround.

Hi @v-xiaoyan-msft , thank you for your feedback.

I haven't yet found a way to set the storage mode to dual for data coming from Azure Dadatabrick. Because once I use the SQL query to fetch the data, the storage mode is imported by default.
