Actually it is a shame. After every update there are problems which are - if at all - only solved with several fixes.
Do you not test internally at all before an update is rolled out?


We have the latest update, both for the report server and the desktop application.

I have an older Report with a Direct Query Data Source (to SQL Server 2019), after the update I only changed the sorting of a table and saved it again. Since then, the report isn't working at all. Every time I get the following error message:

We couldn't connect to the Analysis Services server. Make sure you've entered the connection string correctly.


Credentials are correct (Test connection is working), Data Source as mentioned is a sql server 2019 database.


Please fix the issues and for upcoming releases... test it!
