Tableau-migration semantic core for a host repository: source calculations, request roles, visual grain and model/report handoff. Use for translated-model work, not generic TMDL/DAX or greenfield authoring. Host tooling is not bundled; general procedures belong to installed semantic-model-authoring.

Collected from public GitHub. Every version is saved exactly as it was and never changes. Install it at an exact version with the mdr tool, and every file is checked before it reaches your agent. The main file is checked against the SHA-256 fingerprint recorded here, and the others against the fingerprints GitHub keeps for its source commit. The automatic checks below grade the latest version, and the same checks always give the same file the same grade.

What the file says

# Tableau migration semantic core

## 1. Translating source fields

Host-repo only: `docs\tableau-dax-translation-guide.md` owns source translation patterns; load the relevant section. Relative docs/scripts/local owners require the host checkout, not just this plugin. An unavailable owner blocks only the affected migration operation; never invent a replacement or treat absence as success.

Preserve source semantics, including first-match branches and ATTR's actual grain; flag suspected source defects rather than silently correcting them. Use resolved IDs/captions, not stale internal names.

Keep the source's column/measure role, target table, parameter meaning, units and independent-source relationships. Parameter equality is not automatically a numeric what-if control. Relationship anchors are not real data columns; spatial expressions require an explicit supported representation/gap, not a forced scalar column (§8 of the translation guide).

## 2. TMDL hand-authoring pitfalls

How to install

The exact contents, by fingerprint
mdr add guust-franssens/tableau-to-powerbi-migration/powerbi-semantic-model-gotchas@sha256:bd2f75061d271a4a

The line at the top of this page pins the label git:20261105.dd2575b, which is what most people want. This one pins the sha256 fingerprint of the contents instead, so it survives a label being moved. Either way the exact version is written to mdr.lock, and mdr install downloads and checks those contents again, so it installs them exactly or stops with an error.
