Using Q&A and Connect Power Bi with Analysis Service

Hello,

I used PowerBI to create a model from an SQL satabase Datasource..

I build model on PowerBI and a Dashboard..

everything went fine and Q&A worked with me fine ..

the problem appeared when I tried to create a PowerBI Dashboard on Analysis Service DataSource..

 the Q&A feature didn't work with me however I activate Q&A feature from site..

 

why it worked with PowerBI model but didn't work with AS model

    Hi Anonymous,

    According to your description, you connect live to SQL Server Analysis Services data sources from Power BI Service and wants to use the Q&A feature, right? If that is the case, what version of your SQL Server Analysis Service?

    As per this article, currently, the Q&A feature is only available for SQL Server 2016 Analysis Services data sources. Based on my test, when I connect to SQL Server 2016 Analysis Services tabular model, Q&A works as expected, you can check the following screenshots.


    However, when I connect to SQL Server 2014 Analysis Services tabular model, Q&A is not working. Thus, please ensure that you are connecting to SQL Server 2016 Analysis Services data sources.

    Thanks,
    Lydia Zhang
