Visualize and analyze DAX measure and table dependencies right inside VS Code.
Features
Dependency Explorer — an interactive graph of your measures, tables and
columns, with search, impact analysis, a collapsible layers panel and a
tabular list view.
Rename tables and have every dependent DAX formula updated automatically.
Delete guard — a table can only be removed when no formula references it.
TMDL import — pull tables, columns, measures and calculated
columns/tables straight from a Power BI TMDL semantic model in your
workspace.
Commands
Command
Description
DAXonomy: Open Dependency Explorer
Launch the explorer webview.
DAXonomy: Import TMDL Semantic Model from Workspace
Scan the workspace for *.tmdl files (or pick a folder) and import them.
How it works
The extension bundles the DAXonomy engine (a self-contained executable). On
first use it starts the engine on a local port with a per-workspace database and
renders the existing web UI in a webview. Nothing leaves your machine.
Requirements
Windows (the bundled engine is a Windows executable).
