I am currently trying to connect Essbase to PowerBI and use DirectQuery. I am able to connect to a cube using the URL, and data is loaded into PowerBI. I can see most of my data as tables. But data stored as a measure in Essbase all show up blank when trying to include it within a visual. Is this an issue with DirectQuery taking too long to query the data into PowerBI or can I find another solution to this issue?
Hi, what URL are you using to connect to Essbase? We are looking to connect Power BI to Essbase21c.
Thank you in advance
