Manage your data source Analysis Services Power BIOnce you have installed the On premises Data Gateway, you will need to add data sources that can be used with the gateway. This article will look at how to work with gateways and data sources. You can use the Analysis Services data source either for scheduled refresh or for live connections. Download and install the gateway. You can download the gateway from the Power BI service. Select Downloads Data Gateway, or by going to the gateway download page.

You can use a live connection against tabular or multidimensional instances. Server version. Required SKU2. SP1 CU4 or later. Business Intelligence and Enterprise SKU2. Business Intelligence and Enterprise SKU2. Standard SKU or higher. Cell level Formatting and translation features are not supported. Actions and Named Sets are not exposed to Power BI, but you can still connect to multidimensional cubes that also contain Actions or Named sets and create visuals and reports. Add a gateway. To add a Gateway, simply download and install the gateway on a server in your environment. After you have installed the gateway, it will show in the lists of gateways under Manage gateways. Note. Manage gateways will not show up until you are the admin of at least one gateway. This can happen either by being added as an admin or you installing and configuring a gateway. Remove a gateway. Removing a gateway will also delete any data sources under that gateway. This will also break any dashboards and reports that rely on those data sources. Select the gear icon in the upper right corner Manage gateways. Gateway Remove. Add a data source. You can add a data source by either selecting a gateway and click Add data source, or go to Gateway Add data source. You can then select the Data Source Type from the list. Select Analysis Services if you are connecting to either a Multidimensional or Tabular server. You will then want to fill in the information for the data source which includes the Server and the Database. The Username and Password that you enter will be used by the gateway to connect to the Analysis Services instance. Note. The Windows account you enter must have Server Administrator permissions for the instance you are connecting to. If this accounts password is set to expire, users could get a connection error if the password isnt updated for the data source. For more information, see the main on premises data gateway article to learn more about how credentials are stored. You can click Add after you have everything filled in. You can now use this data source for scheduled refresh, or live connections, against an Analysis Services instance that is on premises. You will see Connection Successful if it succeeded. Advanced settings. You can configure the privacy level for your data source. This controls how data can be mashed up. This is only used for scheduled refresh. It does not apply to live connections. Learn moreGet Data experience for Analysis Services in Power BI site. A unique option for Analysis Services is to use Get Data within the Power BI service directly. You can connect to a live Analysis Services data source that is configured within the gateway without needing Power BI Desktop. Your account needs to be listed in the Users tab for the data source, under the gateway, for it to show up in the list. To connect to the data source, you can do the following. Within the Power BI service, select Get Data. Select Databases. Select SQL Server Analysis Services Connect. Select a data source from the list. Any Analysis Services data source that you have access to will be listed here. Select the model that you want to connect to. Then select Connect. You will see a dataset show up with the name of the server. You can then select that dataset and begin to create reports on it. This will be working against live data. Usernames with Analysis Services. Each time a user interacts with a report connected to Analysis Services, the effective username is passed to the gateway and then onto your on premises Analysis Services server. The email address, that you sign into Power BI with, is what we will pass to Analysis Services as the effective user. This is passed in the connection property Effective. User. Name. This email address should match a defined UPN within the local Active Directory Domain. The UPN is a property of an Active Directory account. That Windows account then needs to be present in an Analysis Services role. If a match cannot be found, in Active Directory, the login will not be successful. Learn more. You can also map your Power BI sign in name with a local directory UPN. Learn more. How do I tell what my UPN isYou may not know what your UPN is, and you may not be a domain administrator. You can use the following command from your workstation to find out the UPN for your account. The result will look similar to an email address, but this is the UPN that is on your domain account. If you are using an Analysis Services data source for live connections, and If this doesnt match the email address you sign into Power BI with, you may want to look at how to Map user names. Map user names. You can map user names for Analysis Services in two different ways Manual user re mapping On premises Active Directory Property Lookup to remap AAD UPNs to Active Directory users AD Lookup mappingWhile its possible to perform manual mapping using the second approach, doing so would be time consuming and difficult to maintain its especially difficult when pattern matching doesnt suffice such as when domain names are different between AAD and on premises AD, or when user account names are different between AAD and AD. As such, manual mapping with the second approach is not recommended. We describe these two approaches, in order, in the following two sections. Manual user name re mapping. For Analysis Services data sources, you can configure custom User Principal Name UPN rules. This will help you if your Power BI service login names do not match your local directory UPN. For example, if you sign into Power BI with johncontoso. UPN is johncontoso. Analysis Services. To get to the UPN Mapping screen, do the following. Go to the gear icon and select Manage Gateways. Expand the gateway that contains the Analysis Services data source. Or, if you havent created the Analysis Services data source, you can do that at this point. Select the data source and then select the Users tab. Select Map user names. You will then see options to add rules as well as test for a given user. Note. You may inadvertently change a user that you didnt intend to. For example, if your Replace original value is contoso. With New name is contoso. Also, if your Replace Original name is davecontoso. With New name is davecontoso. AD lookup mapping. To perform on premises AD property lookup to re map AAD UPNs to Active Directory users, follow the steps in this section. To begin with, lets review how this works. In the Power BI service the following occurs For each query by a Power BI AAD user to an on premises SSAS server, a UPN string is passed along, such as. Name. last. Namecontoso. Driver Updater Pro Registration Keygen Idm. Note. Any manual UPN user mappings defined in the Power BI data source configuration are still applied before sending the user name string to the on premises data gateway.
