Hi @Anonymous 

Not possible from Power Bi service.

For you need you can use Tabular Editor or Power BI Model Documenter in your desktop

If you save your model as .pbip you could parse the model.bim and get all the sources.

Hi, @Anonymous 

Based on what you said, I also created a Semantic model in Power BI Service.

What you can do is export the semantic model but if you want to export the list, it may not be possible at the moment. you can go to https://ideas.fabric.microsoft.com/ideas/ and suggest your own ideas.
