The Associations Map gives you a visual map of the objects in the data source and the navigations between them. It’s the easiest way to understand how a multi-object selection hangs together before you build a Power BI model on top of it.
Preview the Associations Map is still being implemented. The button is present in the Create / Edit Data Source form but does not yet render the live diagram. This page documents the intended behaviour; the screenshots will follow once the feature ships.
Open the Associations Map #
From the create or edit form, select Preview Associations Map in the footer. A modal opens with the diagram.
What the diagram shows #
- Each box is an object from the selected HubSpot objects. Selected objects are highlighted; objects the connector reads as parents of selected child objects are also shown so the diagram stays self-contained.
- Lines between boxes are associations declared by HubSpot between the selected objects.
- Cardinality markers (1, *, 0..1) on each line follow standard Associations Map conventions.
Download #
The toolbar inside the diagram provides export buttons:
- SVG — vector. Best for embedding in documentation.
- PNG — raster. Convenient for chat and tickets.
- PDF — single-page snapshot suitable for reviews.
Associations Map from the data source list #
You don’t have to open the editor to view the Associations Map. From the Data Sources list, the row’s Actions menu also has Preview Associations Map. This opens the same dialog with the currently-saved selection.
