How to connect vertipaq analyzer to power bi desktop

[Don-Bot]

Can someone let me know what I"m missing on this?  I want to connect the vertipaq analyzer to power bi desktop but it seems things have changed since the blog and guy in the cube video I'm using.  

In those it says to edit the SSAS connection to connect.  However, I no longer see an SSAS connection to edit... please let me know what I"m missing.

Hi @Don-Bot ,

Try using DAX Studio to connect to pbix and then export the vpax file.
DAX Studio - SQLBI

Then open the vpax file in vertipaq analyzer.

This information is also included in the dax studio view at the bottom.

@Don-Bot , I think they are using DAX studio. Once you install DAX Studio, you should be able to see that under external tools
