In the legacy version of TX, it was possible to check one or more semantic models in a project perspective. If the perspective is dynamic, it would then automatically select all tables required for that semantic model in the perspective.

In the new TX version, semantic models are separate instances and can therefore not be selected in the data warehouse Perspectives. So now we have to select all tables manually and maintain the selection if tables are added to a semantic model.

It would be very helpful if we are able to select a semantic model in a data warehouse perspective.

Hi @wouter.goslinga 

This has been implemented. You can now generate a perspective in a Prepare instance (formerly known as DW instance) automatically based on a Deliver instance (formerly known as semantic model instance) execution package. For more info please see:

@Christian Hauggaard it's a bit of an improvement but we're not quite there yet. What is now possible is a ‘one off’, so you generate a perspective based on the Deliver instance. But if you change the deliver instance, for example add some tables to it, the perspective does not get updated like the dynamic perspective in legacy TX did.

@wouter.goslinga this is correct, after updating the deliver instance for example to include more tables, you currently have to right-click on the execution package and select Generate end-to-end tasks and packages to add these tables to the existing auto-generated Prepare instance perspective. Can you please submit a new product idea to dynamically/automatically update the auto-generated perspective?
