Refresh data from on-premise multidimensional SSAS
Hi guys,
My personal gateway is up and running (refreshing data with on premise MS SQL datasource).
I am trying to schedule a refresh of a power bi data with on premise SSAS multidimensional datasource and I cannot do this as when I try to set the scheduled refresh there is no info for the gateway status and there is no datasource for which credentials to be supplied.
Please advise. Refresh of multidimensional on-premise SSAS is said to be a supported scenario (Refresh data in Power BI) so obviously I am missing something
Thanks

Just to add that the above behaviour is seen when the pbix is published from the Power BI desktop. If the file is imported, I observe the same error as paul_pelletier (http://community.powerbi.com/t5/Integrations-with-Files-and/Analysis-Services-refresh-problem/m-p/8261#U8261)
Please advise how to refresh data from on-premise SSAS multidimensional datasource.
Tsanka, have you tried re-entering your credentials? Also what authentication type did you choose within your pbix file?
Thank you, @PoweBIGuy, for trying to help me.
I am using Windows authentification for SSAS (I think SSAS does not support basic one)
For the SSAS datasource I am not able to re-enter my credentials and the service cannot refresh the datasource:
If I import/publish a report with MS SQL datasource, everything is okay - the information about the gateway and a place where to reenter the credentials.
May it be something related to the SSAS - settings, version? Is MS SQL 2012 Standard 64 supported?
Thanks

I have tried anything that came to my mind - alternative credentials, SSAS server with the full domain name (server.abc.com), etc. and yet - the same result.
Obviously there is an issue with the authentification.
Is there anybody who is doing refresh of a multidimensional on-premise SSAS datasource in app.powerbi.com?
Thanks
