live connection to ssas is support by sql server developer edition?
@manito969,
What version of SQL Server do you use? Based on my test, I can connect to SSAS 2017 developer edition in Power BI Desktop using live connection, and I am able to add the data source within gateway.
However, please note that SQL Server developer edition can't be used in production environment.

Lydia
