The Ultimate Power BI Productivity Boost with TMDL and Fabric Studio

12/11/2025

Abstract

Ready to Revolutionize Your Power BI Development?

Imagine being able to copy entire tables and measures in bulk from one semantic model to another—instantly. What if you could rename measures in bulk, or use a simple find and replace to update logic across all your DAX measures at once? How about creating perspectives or implementing object-level security directly within Power BI Desktop? And the best part? You can publish new DAX measures, add new tables, or modify existing DAX measures and tables without having to re-publish the entire PBIX file.

Sounds like a dream? It’s all possible with TMDL (Tabular Model Definition Language). TMDL is the game-changing Power BI feature we’ve been waiting for. The much-anticipated Power BI “developer mode” is here and ready to supercharge your Power BI development experience. And with Fabric Studio, it’s like magic.

In this session, real-world examples will teach you how TMDL can make your Power BI tasks easier. We’ll show you how to leverage TMDL and Fabric Studio and build your skills to take full advantage of this powerful new feature.
