Can't connect live to SSAS in Power bi desktop March release

[ysapiyev]

Hi everyone,

I've got error while connecting live to SSAS in power bi. Error shows that my credentials are don't have permission to access them. However, when I use import instead of live connection, I see database and can import data. What is the issue for such behavior?

Regards,

Hi,

Is this error occurring in PBI Desktop or on PBI Report Server?

Were you able to connect in previous versions of PBI? - Did this only start happening in PBI March release?

@Anonymous,

It occured in PBI Desktop report server.

Actually, it worked month ago in March version, but right now it doesn't.

OK - I have experienced issues connecting to SSAS in the Data Source section of the Report Server portal...

...however, not within PBI Desktop itself.

Is it worth double checking the security settings on your SSAS instance? Hope you manage to get the problem fixed.
