Essbase (Beta) Power BI Connector

JohnnyBeeGoodMar 22 2019 — edited Apr 1 2024

Hello;

We're trying to test drive the new Essbase connector in Power BI.

We've managed to start the connection but we cannot get our cubes/apps to display.

We're using the following connection string per the documentation out there: http://EssbaseServer:19000/aps/XMLA

This brings up our environment but when we click to expand the apps, its just spins forever and doesn't load anything.

We've never played with any XML settings before so maybe something needs to be setup in provider services???

Wondering if any Essbase folks have experimented with getting this going and had any success yet?

We're really excited to stop writing extract routines out of Essbase to get data into our BI models. essbase powerbi.jpg
