SSAS Live Connection using Port instead of Instance

Does anyone know if a Live Connection to SSAS is supported when using the port?

 

"Server: Port" instead of "Server\Instance"

 

For me, the tiles just infinitely spin when switching the connection string from instance to port.

Hi @wmorris20,

 

Yes. We can use IP Address: Port Number (e.g. 192.168.1.1:5585) to live connect to SSAS instance.
