Filtering Azure Cube while loading

Hello All, 

 

I am importinfg data from an azure cube. 

My query looks something like this :

let
Source = AnalysisServices.Database("--server--", "--database--", [TypedMeasureColumns=true, Implementation="2.0"]),
Model1 = Source{[Id="Model"]}[Data],
Model2 = Model1{[Id="Model"]}[Data],
#"Added Items" = Cube.Transform(Model2,
{
 
{Cube.AddAndExpandDimensionColumn, "[--table--]", {"[--table--].[--col--].[--col--]", "[--table--].[--col--].[--col--]"}, {"--name1--", "--name2--"}},
 
 in
#"Added Items"

 

I saw Cube documentation, there are some functions like Cube.Parameter , Cube.Filter.

I tried using them but I was not able to filter the data at loading stage, as this will save time and resource.

 

Has anyone done this? 
Any help would be appreciated.

 

Thanks !

Its an OLAP Cube, any ideas on it ?

No, I don't know MDX.  I hope someone else can help you further.

is this a true OLAP cube or a Power BI dataset semantic model ? If the latter then you should use DAX queries.
