Kyvos semantic models can now be connected from Microsoft Power BI through Data Analysis Expressions (DAX) connectivity. You can run DAX queries on the Kyvos semantic model for accelerated analysis on Power BI. Additionally, you can use DAX functions to create calculated measures. Furthermore, it also supports row-level security for Power BI.
