Common questions

Is Pbix Lineage safe?

It passed 2 of 3 applicable basic checks. We have not read the code. Before adding a key or token, see what access the server asks for and use a key with only the permissions you need.

What keys or codes does it need?

The registry does not list a required key, though some servers ask you to sign in on first use.

Does it run on my computer or in the cloud?

It runs on your computer. Your AI app starts it when needed, and data does not pass through the maker’s servers (unless it calls an online service itself).

Is it still maintained?

The GitHub repo last changed 4 months ago, and the latest version (0.1.2) reached the registry 4 months ago.

Which apps can use it?

Apps that support MCP, such as Claude Desktop, Claude Code, Cursor and VS Code. You also need Python (uv) on your computer.

What can I use instead?

🌐 PBIX‑Atlas

Full lineage graph for Power BI — from source to visual field

PbixAtlas is an Universal lineage graph for Power BI .pbix files: source to visual field in one traversable graph.

source (HTTP, OData, SQL, file...) --> Power Query (M)

--> column / calculated column --> measure (DAX) --> field displayed in a report visual

Install

pip install pbix-atlas

or

uv add pbix-atlas

Quick start

from pbix_atlas import LineageGraphBuilder, upstream, downstream, print_tree, find_nodes

graph = LineageGraphBuilder().build("my_report.pbix")

find_nodes(graph, "customer_name") print_tree(graph, "visual_field::my_report.pbix::Page1::16::customer_name", direction="upstream") print_tree(graph, "source::odata::example.com/odata/", direction="downstream")

Export

from pbix_atlas import export_graphml, export_nodes_csv, export_edges_csv, graph_summary

graph_summary(graph) # {'query': 70, 'column': 183, ...} export_graphml(graph, "lineage.graphml") # Gephi / yEd export_nodes_csv(graph, "nodes.csv") export_edges_csv(graph, "edges.csv")

Codegen — standalone Python pipeline

Generates a single Python file reproducing a report's full chain: source → extraction → Power Query → semantic model → Vizro dashboard. The M source is executed at runtime by the built-in interpreter, not pattern-matched. Unimplemented functions raise MRuntimeError (no silent stubs).

pip install "pbix-atlas[codegen]"

pbix-atlas-codegen my_report.pbix -o pipeline.py

from pbix_atlas import generate_python_pipeline

generate_python_pipeline("my_report.pbix", "pipeline.py")
