Importing data from Azure Analysis services

We are currently moving from OnPremise cube data to Azure analysis services, we currently have a number of reports set up using MDX to query the data but when i try use the MDX it seems to just crash and die and say i have hit a limit of 10gb. Of which i know there is not 10GB worth of data in there roughly 100mb? 

 

Am i doing something wrong? should i not be using MDX

Hi, @Anonymous 

Have you defined many-to-many relationships when  any of the intermediate dimensions have 1 million or more rows in your mode?

@v-easonf-msft to do this would i need to do it before i import the data at the model view in visual studio?

I get the error before i even load the data, so unable to get to the relationship part. The relationships are set up as a tabular model view. Are you suggesting its done at this level?

 

 

have you tried to use dax studio to see what code its generating from the mdx, might be useful.

also have you used the performance analyser?

is this when you publish or when you are importing the data?
