Error importing a CUB file

Hi!

 

Until the April 2022 release, importing files in CUB format was working normally (local cube - SQL Server Analysis Services database). As of the May 2022 release, Power BI is able to read metadata but cannot import. It is a multidimensional cube, version 1100.

 

 

 

 

May you help me, please?

 

Thanks,

Ulisses.

    Hi Anonymous ,

     

    Accorrding to your error message, you should first check if your datasource is accessible. Does it change? Or did you have any other operations on the data source?

    Hi, Anonymous !

     

    I tested with both accessible and also inaccessible datasource. My cube is totally offline.

     

    To help with your tests, please download the cube below:

    Try to import it in the April version. It will work. Then try to import in the following versions.

     

    Thanks,

    Ulisses.

    Hi!

     

    Any news? Still not working. It's a Power BI bug, not a exclusive issue. Were you able to import the CUB file? It was working until the April version.

     

     

     

    Thanks.
