report server + aas
4 TopicsReport Server connect to Azure Analysis Services How to configure Data Source?
Our RS version is September 2022. We've built a report that connects live to our AAS instance and built some additional measures in the report. Works great in PBI-RS desktop. What is the correct way to configure the Data Source in the Manage/Data sources screen? The AAS cube has a Users role with an Azure Active Directory group in that role. Under the credentials, the only options are Windows Authentication and Basic Authentication. When I set the credentials to Windows and select the radio button for "As the user viewing the report" I get the error message "We couldn't connect to the Analysis Services server. Make sure you've entered the connection string correctly." When I change it to "Using the following credentials", enter a Non-MFA account and password that is a member of the user group, and check the box that says "Log in using these credentials, but then try to impersonate the user viewing the report", I get the same error. When I uncheck the "Log in using these credentials but then..", same error. When I test the connection, I get "Unable to obtain authentication token using the credentials provided" When I change the authentication type to Basic Authentication and provide a username and password, test the connection, I also get "Unable to obtain authentication token using the credentials provided". I've verified that I can access the AAS instance from the on-prem report server using my own credentials and MFA. It shouldn't be that hard to connect up to AAS in a power BI model from report server. Has anyone been able to do this succesfully? Thanks in Advance!3.2KViews0likes9CommentsModel Refresh with Azure SQL and Report Server
Hi, I am trying to connect to an Azure SQL Database from an on-prem report server (sep 2021). I would like to use "Username and Password" as authentication methode (https://learn.microsoft.com/en-us/power-bi/report-server/data-sources), but I don't know how to configure it. I had no problem to connect to the Azure SQL Database via Power BI Desktop. I used the "Microsoft account" option to authenticate using Power Bi Desktop. This option is not available when configuring the reporting server. Thanks for your help!Solved918Views0likes3CommentsError connecting to Azure Analysis Services from Power BI Report Server
I have created a report in Power BI Desktop (RS edition) and connected it to our Azure Analysis Services Model. I connected using my Microsoft Account (AAD?) and can run the report without issue. However, once it's published to our Report Server, when I access it I receive the error: Couldn't connect The report server couldn't connect to the data source using the information you entered. Make sure you've entered the connection string and any credentials correctly. Unable to obtain authentication token using the credentials provided. If your Active Directory tenant administrator has configured Multi-Factor Authentication or if your account is a Microsoft Account, please remove the user name and password from the connection string, and then retry. You should then be prompted to enter your credentials. When managing the Data Source within Report Server, I only have Windows Authentication or Basic Authentication as an option. Do I need to edit my connection string for the AAS server?8.5KViews0likes6Commentspaginated report does not render when connected to Azure Analysis Service
Hello Team, I have a strange problem and trying to figure out a solution. I am building a solution where data gets consolidated on Azure SQL DB. I had a data model built in Power BI by improting data and developed reports. The PBIX was published on Power BI service and everything is running fine. Then came a request for the paginated report. Since we have Power BI Report Server, I thought of laveraging it. However, connecting to dataset in Power BI service is not supported on PBIRS. Hence, I built a tabular model using Azure Analysis Server. Then I developed my paginated report. I can connect to AAS, build dataset, define parameters using both Report Builder (downloaded from PBIRS) and Power BI Report Builder. When I run the report, it cannot render data if my dataset has fields from multiple tables. If I have fields from single table, it renders the report. It gives "out of memory" exception. I tried to scale up my AAS, however, same error. Wondering what could be the problem and resolution. Any help is appreciated. Thank you,Solved1.3KViews0likes1Comment
