SSAS Tabular Live Connection Deprecation
Thank you for looking more into this. It is appreciated.
I have not had much experience messing with other sources in Power BI Service other than SSAS through the on-premise gateway as that tends to be my focus area. Can you provide any resources that would show the proper way of setting this up, or is it just a matter of the following?
1. Connect to SSAS cube in Power BI Desktop
2. Save report and upload to Workspace
3. Configure the new data set that is created from uploading the report to be shared with people in your organization
Also in the post https://community.powerbi.com/t5/Service/Connecting-to-Analysis-Services-from-the-Power-BI-Service/td-p/954032 there is a Microsoft Employee that said that it is deprecated. Although none of the links they provide are of any value in giving guidance on going forward.
On Microsoft's site for connecting to Analysis Services, it hasn't been updated in July 2019. https://docs.microsoft.com/en-us/power-bi/service-gateway-enterprise-manage-ssas
I started noticing this being an issue last month with one of my clients. There was another that pointed out the deprecation notice on the Get Data page. I am not sure when this went into effect though as I have not seen any announcement on this.
Hmm, interesting. It takes you here too: https://docs.microsoft.com/en-us/power-bi/service-datasets-discover-across-workspaces
I'm looking into it.
