Discover the potential of scripts and programmatic access to semantic model metadata. Get inspiration about what's possible, and take home specific examples that can boost your productivity. In this session, Daniel will assume the role of a data modelling wizard, throwing incantations and spells in the form of Tabular Editor C# scripts that can generate model documentation, clean up your model, and unlock advanced DAX modelling techniques that would otherwise be extremely tedious and time consuming.
