@Anonymous can you test if you connect to your server with other tools like SSMS?

@parry2k when i'm using SSMS im able to connect to the SSAS server, and when i'm trying to connect using the import option i'm able to connect to the SSAS using my PBI desktop but with direct query, still not working

Hi @Anonymous ,

Firstly, you may need to install the latest version of Power BI Desktop. Many features will be updated with the new one. And please clear the permission of SSAS and try re-connecting it.

Or you also could try to change the property of ExternalCommandTimeout to a big value rather than the default value(3600).

General properties

Hi @Anonymous ,

Sorry for late back.  And sorry that It can't work for you. Maybe you could try creating a support ticket to get the dedicated support.
