RE: Import a tabular model into powerpivot and/or power bi designer

Thanks for the feedback! We're considering adding a way for users to import their Power BI artifacts in Excel Workbooks into the Power BI Designer: Power Query queries, Data Model objects, Power View sheets.

One of the main challenges at this point is that there are lots of missing features to manage and author the Data Model and other artifacts that we need to enable first so that imported objects can be properly managed in the Power BI Designer.

In the current version of the Designer, you can't import your Power Pivot models yet. This feature is critical for broad adoption. Please add it asap. Thank you!
