Yes, it is possible to connect with multiple SSAS (SQL Server Analysis Services) cubes in Power BI. You can achieve this by creating multiple data sources within your Power BI report, each connecting to a different SSAS cube. Here are the steps to do this:

Open Power BI Desktop.
Click on "Get Data" and select "SQL Server Analysis Services database".
Enter the server name and select the appropriate connection mode (Import or Live Connection).
Select the cube you want to connect to and load the data.
Repeat the process for each additional SSAS cube you want to connect to.

Hi,

Yes, you can connect multiple SSAS cubes in Power BI, but it depends on the connection mode:

Import mode: You can connect to multiple cubes and build relationships as needed.

Live connection (Multidimensional): Only one cube per report is allowed.

Composite model (Tabular, 2021+ compatibility): You can mix live SSAS and imported data.

Thanks,

Bhavin


Thanks,
