Hi Team,

We are using Tableau desktop and tableau server for one of my application. In tableau there is an option to create a workbook or reports automatically i.e. if we develop one workbook and save it in XML format , we can use the same design for multiple databases by changing the database name. That helps us to automate the designing of workbook using one template. When i gone through with Power BI , we don't see that much flexibility. Here we need to create a workbook for each database and import to server using rest APIs. If you automate the workbook creation process using one template it really helps.
