Azure Analysis Services - Visual Studio - Community Resource

[pawlowski6132]

Can anyone recommend a good place to solicit help with a Visual Studio question? I'm trying to model for Azure Analysis Services using its version of Power Query and I am getting an error I can't get past.

The resources online are pretty scarce. If anyone has anything that'd be great. I've done hours of searching online and hit a couple of the resources but, hopefully, you'll have something I completely overlooked.

Coming here because this is a great community; very helpful.

thanx in advance

Hi @pawlowski6132 ,

What kind of issue did you have? Could you please share more details about that?

Here's another. I use the Essbase connector in Power BI. It's a great cube connector in Power Query. However, that connector doesn't exist in the Tabular Model in Visual Studio used to build and push models to Azure Analysis Services. I know these are obscure but, there seems to be a community for EVERYTHING on the internet. I can't believe I can't find it.

So, here's the current issue as a real example.

I've successfully created and deployed a model to Azure Analysis Services and subsequently connected to it via Power BI Desktop and published report to pbi.com.

However, while I connected via the Live Direct Connect, data is not refreshing in Desktop or Service.

Hmmm. There aren't many "levers" to pull in PBI environment so, must be in model?? But, where?
