Is there an update on 'BIML Features Not Available' ?

Varigence has stopped providing Biml to BI Developer Extensions. Use their first party BimlExpress instead:

So, just wanting to confirm, ALL BIML features will no longer be provided/supported through BIDS Helper then?

@jdbuss that's correct.

If you're using VS2013 or earlier you could download an old release 1.7.0 of BIDS Helper from https://github.com/BIDeveloperExtensions/bideveloperextensions/releases which I think contains Biml features but we have no plans of releasing bug fixes for that. The recommended approach is to install https://www.varigence.com/BimlExpress

That sucks, cause informational messages in bidshelper are blocking error in BimlExpress....

column name must be unique despite each having their own outputbuffer....

Can you elaborate on this? What versions of VS and what extension versions?
