Analysis Services Translation

Hello..

when I was using Powerview and Excel I was using BIDS helper to translate my model

 

and I use with my connection a Locale Idintefire  = "somenumber of my language"

and then it will pull the columns and measures translated as I put in BIDS Helper,,,

 

I don't know how to reflect that translation in Power BI...

if is it possible can anyone tell me how to do it with screenshots!

    As mentioned in document, the translation feature is not supported when connectin SSAS multidimensional model. 

     

    I have tested before. When connect multidimensional model in Power BI Desktop, it will take current system language to render the metadata in corresponding language. I may work if you apply Locale ID when openning connection. However, it's not supportd to edit the connection string within Power BI Desktop. So for your requirement, it can't be achieved in that way you expected.
