Hi MP_123,

 

According to your description, you are able to connect to SSAS database to get data, but when you add a measure or column in Power BI Desktop, the error throws out, right?

 

Based on my research, the issue can be caused by an incorrect memory setting in SSAS. In your scenario, please make the memory settings change to give a proper value to the memory limits in either percentage of server memory, or in bytes. For more information, please refer to this article:

 

SSAS error “The operation has been cancelled because there is not enough memory for the application”...


If you have any question, please feel free to ask.

@v-qiuyu-msft

the memory settings you meant, is on my computer ? or on the SSAS ?

PBI desktop doesnt have size limits right? the limit is only when publish?

Hi MP_123,

 

The memory settings mentioned in orignal post is on SSAS server. You can open Analysis Server Properties to modiffy those preperties.
