Accessing SSAS db in node

@dm-p @d_gosbell 

 

Is there any way to access (to read/query db) the ssas db (hosted on a workspace/localhost) in node.js/ within the custom viz. Does there exist any node module that can do the job?

 

Currently msnodesqlv8 is capable of querying a sql-server. I have tested it and it is fully legit. I was wondering if there is a similar module exist for SSAS?

 

Thank you in advance.

Custom Visuals are usually written in typescript. Custom visuals use the customer visual API to integrate with a Power BI report and there is no facility in that to write custom queries. I don't know if you can even use node modules in custom visuals. And I don't have a lot of experience in node so I'm not aware of whether there are any modules that support SSAS.
