Is live connection possible with Tabular on a no-domain server?

Hi all,

 

Is it possible to get a live data connection between the Power BI App and a Tabular model on a on-premise server which is not part of a domain? 

 

We are trying to get this done, but it keeps failing.

 

Thanks. Mike Vink

Hi @mvink ,

In my opinion, this is feasible. Refer to the following article for a step-by-step procedure:

Connect PowerBI on-premise gateway to tabular cube without domain account

The user in the following case also connected to SSAS tabular without a domain, following the actions in this article :https://community.powerbi.com/t5/Service/Connect-to-on-premise-SSAS-tabular-cube-with-domain-account...
