  • Artículo

The following restrictions can apply to this rowset.

Name

Type

Description

QUERY<350>

xsd:string

Given a specific DAX query, if the query contains a measure, the rowset shows each object on which the DAX query has a dependency.

DATABASE_NAME<351>

xsd:string

The name of the database.

OBJECT_TYPE<352>

xsd:string

A string that indicates the type of the object for which dependency analysis is requested.

OBJECT_CATEGORY<353>

xsd:string

A string that specifies the categorization of an object as being about data access versus analysis.

The possible values are the following:

  • DATA_ACCESS – Returns partitions, M objects, and data sources.

  • ANALYSIS – Returns anything considered by a query on a cached model, such as calculated table partitions, tables, columns, hierarchies, relationships, and measures.

Values DATA_ACCESS and ANALYSIS are mutually exclusive.

KIND<354>

xsd:string

A string that specifies the kind of reference that is used to compute the dependency.

The possible values are the following:

  • DATA_DEPENDENCY – Is used for data references and applies to DAX expressions, M expressions, and metadata/structural dependencies, such as hierarchies and relationships.

  • NAMED_DEPENDENCY – Is used for explicitly named references and applies to DAX expressions and M expressions only.

An M expression is always both a named dependency and a data dependency. A DAX expression can be either or both.

Values NAMED_DEPENDENCY and DATA_DEPENDENCY are not mutually exclusive, and many dependencies are both.

Both OBJECT_CATEGORY and KIND restrictions MUST be satisfied. If either restriction is not satisfied, the schema rowset output is not returned. Dependency is allowed by current OBJECT_CATEGORY and KIND restriction settings as described in the following table.
