Power Bi Desktop May Update - Import data from SSAS ignoring DAX query

[AaronVi]

Today I updated Power BI Desktop to the latest version and I noticed that importing data from SSAS Tabular using a MDX or DAX query ignores this query completely and sends you to the model browse form.

This has been resolved. Sorry for the inconvenience.

Hello Aaron, I have asked the team to take a look. Thanks, Chuck

Thank you very much! The workaround is Get Data/Blank Query and type the command: =AnalysisServices.Database("SSAS_SERVER", "Database", [Query="YOUR DAX QUERY"]) It looks like the bug affects only the Get Data/Analysis Services dialog.

Same issue here. Unfortunately we are in the process of migrating many of our reports to PowerBI dashboards via cube connection and this bug is putting a stop to our production. A new release with the fix is highly appreciated!

I am being asked to supply SSAS cubes, pbix files and mdx queries? No way I can send SSAS databases. Can the support teams replicate this using the microsoft test SSAS databases? It doesn't seem that hard to replicate?
