    Would be great to have Cognos TM1 cubes as a data source for PowerQuery/Power BI Designer.

    It would be very helpful to incorporate TM1 as a baked in data source for PBI!

    We have just added drill down capability with our TM1 Gateway using Power BI In-line Hierarchy preview feature.

    It would have been very useful if Power BI support Cognos TM1 cubes as data source.

    RE: Cognos TM1 as a data source

    that is great idea. Microsoft does not have a proper CPM solution. Hence Microsoft BI tools should support CPM cubes as data sources. The best CPM tool is IBM Cognos TM1. Hence PowerBI should support Cognos TM1 as data source.
