Import data from Analyses Services without MDX (for business users)

Hi All,

We are important Data from Analyses Services into Power BI.

The challenge we are finding is that we can't filter on the data before importing into Power BI. Therefore it takes significanlty long to import and also loads unnsessery data.

For instance, if we want to see Sales by Year, instead of importing every year available in the CUBE, we would want to import only the current and previous year.

I do know this is possible by MDX, but the issue with this is when business users are doing their own analysis (Self Service) in Power BI.

So the question is:

Is there a non technical way for users import data and filter before hand without the use of MDX, SQL or DAX?
