Model Description

The description written to the generated semantic model's .platform metadata. A project scoped value overrides the instance level value. When the setting is blank, no description property is written.

Models that use the Import value of Direct Lake Flavor are written without .platform metadata, so this setting has no effect on them.

When to Change This Setting​

Set a project scoped value to give each generated Direct Lake model its own description.
