    Need support for many-to-many (M2M) relationship. I have many bridge tables in my tabular model and can’t use these at the moment. (SQL 2016 SSAS). Please at support for this relationship with SSAS Tabular.

    Needed is actual M2M handling in Tabualar, as in Multidimensional.
    Bidirectional filters doesn't solve the issue completly.

    I think it's available in SSAS 2017

    Alexei Stoyanovsky has a workaround that worked for me to allow a SSAS Tabular many-to-many relationship here: https://social.msdn.microsoft.com/Forums/sqlserver/en-US/97d82a9a-abab-4e8d-ba1a-81c7984d9164/manytomany-relationship-error-for-tabular-aas-model-and-power-bi?forum=sqlanalysisservices
