Hi,
After creating the multidimensional cube I am able to connect with excel but not with Power BI. I have tried all three different connection method as follows:
With Live connection:
It gives error as stated subject line
Fig 1: Live Connection issue
Import option:
Even it doesn't work with Import option. When I choose Import option I am able to connect and can see the database name but can't see the cube name under the database, so not able to choose tables.
Import connection showing database name but missing cube name
Fig 2: Import connection showing database name but missing cube name
Import connection with MDX
This one works.
I found similar blog, where I have checked with version; My SQL server version (12.0.5) which means SQL server 2014 SP2.
Since I was not sure where is the issue, I have created very small cube by using one fact and one dimension by using the same VS and deployed to same SSAS server which works fine with Power BI live connection.
However, the existing cube doesn’t work with Live and Import connection. I have tried by changing the SSAS cube database name but did not work really. It's seems to me issue with the cube.
In this situation, I am really wondering what can go wrong with the cube? Your suggestion will be really appreciated.
