Power BI makes it possible to link entities from one dataflow to another without duplicating them. Linked entities can be used in the transformation, enrichment, or calculation of new entities. Avoiding duplication with linked entities makes it possible to maintain a single source of truth across your organization. Refreshing linked entities requires Power BI Premium.
