Refreshing off of a SSAS Tabular model using a snapshot
Thank you for the reply and completely undertand about being an admin to the Gateway. The point above that is puzzling is the requirement to be an Admin on the SSAS Server itself. You would think that being a admin to the connection on the gateway and read access to the tabluar model would suffice. This does work for other connections such as a simple SQL tabular database. But for SSAS, it sounds like the only people that can setup the gateway connection is the SSAS Server admin. However, in the real world, the SSAS Server admin is not the one develping and maintaining gatewaway connections on the PBI Service - the report developer is. So from what I am reading here, for any SSAS connections the SSAS Server admins have to jump into this report developer space which is not generally their job description or responsibility.
