Tabular Editor 3.26.2

+

Release blog: June 2026 (v. 3.26.2, release notes)

+
    +
  • DAX UDFs are generally available: DAX user-defined functions are now GA. Tabular Editor 3.26.2 supports their syntax and metadata for models at compatibility level 1702 or higher, so you can package logic once and reuse it in measures, calculated columns, visual calculations, and other functions. Learn more.
    • +
  • Optional parameters for DAX UDFs: A parameter can now carry a default expression, keeping the common case short while the edge cases stay configurable. The Semantic Analyzer also warns when an argument doesn't match a parameter's declared type.
    • +
  • New NAMEOF parameters: Tabular Editor 3.26.2 understands the optional component and escaped parameters introduced in Power BI Desktop's April 2026 update -- validating them as you type, suggesting calendars alongside tables, columns, and measures, and updating table references inside NAMEOF during formula fixup.
    • +
  • Move tables to groups from the context menu: Right-click one or more selected tables in the TOM Explorer to move them into a Table Group or remove them. The new Move to group submenu lists your existing groups, plus a (New...) entry that creates a group from the selection and a (None) entry that clears the assignment.
    • +
  • Semantic Bridge supports metric view YAML 1.1 (Enterprise): Importing a Databricks Metric View now carries more metadata -- display names, descriptions, and format strings -- into the generated semantic model, with improved SQL-to-DAX translation and support for snowflake schemas with nested joins.
    • +
  • Also in the Tabular Editor CLI: these DAX language and semantic analysis improvements are available in te-cli, helping with scripting operations and giving agents better DAX results.
    • +
  • Other fixes include more reliable Data Preview sorting and pagination across storage modes, several Semantic Analyzer corrections, and Update Table Schema working on mixed selections and Table Groups. See release notes for details.

The submenu lists existing Table Groups, a **(New...)** entry that creates a new group with the selected tables and opens the name editor, and a **(None)** entry that removes the Table Group assignment. +- Refreshed the model presets in the AI Assistant preferences with the latest releases, so users can pick current models without typing a custom model ID. Added Anthropic's `claude-fable-5` and `claude-opus-4-8`, and OpenAI's `gpt-5.5`/`gpt-5.5-pro` along with other current GPT-5 variants. Deprecated entries (such as the older Codex variants) were removed, and the default OpenAI model is now `gpt-5.5`. + +- **Semantic Analyzer improvements** + - Added support for optional parameters with default expressions in DAX UDFs. + - The Semantic Analyzer now emits suitable warning / error messages, when an UDF is called with a parameter that doesn't match its declared type (e.g. passing a scalar value to a `TABLEREF` parameter, etc.) + - The semantic analyzer now reports an error when `IGNORE` is used anywhere other than directly as an expression argument of `SUMMARIZECOLUMNS`, matching engine behavior. + - The semantic analyzer now supports the new optional component and escaping parameters introduced for the `NAMEOF` function in Power BI Desktop April 2026. Valid component keywords are `TABLE`, `COLUMN`, `MEASURE`, `CALENDAR`, `FULL`, `SELF`, `PARENT`; valid escaping keywords are `ESCAPED`, `UNESCAPED`, `MINIMALLYESCAPED`. The return type is unchanged (scalar string). For example, `EVALUATE { NAMEOF([MyMeasure], TABLE, MINIMALLYESCAPED) }` returns the table name component of a fully qualified measure reference. + +- **Semantic Bridge improvements** + - Importing a Databricks Metric View now carries the view's metadata into the semantic model. + - `comment` becomes the description on the model, dimensions, and measures. + - `display_name` becomes the user-facing Name in the TOM model, with a fallback to `name` if there is no `display_name` defined. + - Measure and dimension `format` translate to TOM FormatString, and the resulting column or measure DataType is inferred from the format (currency, percentage, date, etc.). + Format specs without a clean TOM equivalent fall back to a sensible default and surface a warning. + - SQL-to-DAX translation is improved: row counts (`COUNT(*)`), `MEASURE(name)` references, binary operations, literals (including `NULL` -> `BLANK()`), `/` mapped to the blank-safe `DIVIDE`, and parenthesis precedence all now translate cleanly. + - Expressions outside the recognized set still fall back to the verbatim SQL with a warning. + - Translated DAX is best-effort — review and validate before deploying. + - Add support for snowflake schemas with nested joins. + - YAML deserialization accepts both `fields:` and `dimensions:` at the top level: the Databricks v1.1 spec treats them as aliases. + Round-trip preserves whichever keyword the source YAML used. Views created in TE3 (no source YAML) default to `dimensions:` for v1.1 and earlier: the `fields:` alias was introduced after the v1.1 spec was published, so we stay compatible with tooling that targets the original 1.1 spec. + A deserialization warning surfaces when a v1.1+ view uses `dimensions:` (the spec marks `fields:` as preferred at v1.1+), and a symmetric warning surfaces when a pre-v1.1 view uses `fields:`. + - The C# scripting surface renames `Dimension` to `Field` (`view.Fields`, `view.AddField`, `Dimension` -> `Field`, `MakeValidationRuleForDimension` -> `MakeValidationRuleForField`, `ctx.DimensionNames` -> `ctx.FieldNames`). + - The legacy names remain as obsolete forwarders that continue to compile and run with deprecation warnings, so existing scripts and stored paths like `Model.Dimensions["x"]` still work. + - Window measures (including the v1.1 `offset:` field) round-trip in YAML deserialization and serialization. We don't yet translate features the spec marks as experimental; the YAML round-trip preserves them so they're not lost. + - Joins now support two new properties in the updated v1.1 spec: + - `rely:` map is supported + - `cardinality:` field round-trips for both spec values (`many_to_one`, `one_to_many`) and the omitted form. + An unknown value falls back to `many_to_one` with a warning. + - Joins declared `cardinality: one_to_many` are still imported, but the relationship to the source is intentionally skipped — the v1.1 spec treats these joins as independent fact sources aggregated separately at the source grain + The joined table is still created so it appears in the resulting TOM model, without the relationships defined. + A warning surfaces the gap on each affected join. + +## Bugfixes in 3.26.2 + +- Fixed AI chat failing with a `BadRequest` error ("temperature is deprecated for this model") on Anthropic Claude Opus 4.7+ and Fable 5, which removed support for the temperature sampling parameter. The retry logic that transparently re-sends the request without an explicit temperature now recognizes this provider's phrasing in addition to the previously handled cases. +- Calendars are now suggested in autocomplete for the `NAMEOF` and `TABLEOF` functions, alongside tables, columns, and measures. This includes calendars that have no time-unit columns configured (such as a freshly added, not-yet-configured calendar), which were previously omitted. Typing a quoted prefix (e.g. `'My Cal`) now narrows the suggestions to matching calendars, the same way it does for tables. +- Sorting and pagination in the table **Data Preview** are now more reliable across storage modes: + +- Sorting by a column that has no attribute hierarchy no longer returns rows in the wrong order. When possible, paging now uses the `WINDOW` function (on engines that support it, for tables with a primary key); otherwise the preview shows the first rows and indicates that scrolling is disabled. +- Attribute-hierarchy availability is now read directly from the server, so it stays correct even after the model is processed outside of Tabular Editor. +- DirectQuery tables correctly show the first rows (pagination isn't possible with DirectQuery) along with an informational message. +- Preview metadata is cached for the session and only refreshed when you click **Refresh**, avoiding redundant server round-trips (including repeated row-count queries). +- The DAX formatter no longer removes the table qualifier from `DEFINE MEASURE` blocks when the home table cannot be resolved against the model. Previously this could turn a valid `MEASURE 'Sales'[Amount] = ...` into the invalid `MEASURE [Amount] = ...`, breaking the statement. +- The semantic analyzer no longer reports a spurious error when a filter-removal function (`ALL`, `ALLSELECTED`, `REMOVEFILTERS` or `ALLCROSSFILTERED`) is used as the top-level body expression of a DAX user-defined function, e.g. `FUNCTION F = () => REMOVEFILTERS('Sales')`. Such UDFs are valid when invoked as a `CALCULATE` filter argument. Invalid usage is still reported at invocation sites, and relationship modifiers (`CROSSFILTER` / `USERELATIONSHIP`) and `KEEPFILTERS` remain invalid as UDF bodies, matching engine behavior. +- When renaming a table that's being referenced inside a NAMEOF function call, formula fixup now correctly updates the table reference. +- The semantic analyzer no longer reports a spurious error when `TABLEOF(...)` is passed as a table reference argument to `ALL`, `ALLEXCEPT`, `ALLSELECTED`, `ALLNOBLANKROW`, `ALLCROSSFILTERED` or `REMOVEFILTERS`. +- The **Update Table Schema** action now behaves correctly when invoked on a mix of object types, or when invoked on a Table Group. + +--- +## Coming from Tabular Editor 2.x? + +Watch [this video](https://youtu.be/O4ATwdzCvWc) to get a quick tour of the main features in Tabular Editor 3.
