Description

Enables database administrators to execute an XMLA script, TMSL script, Data Analysis Expressions (DAX) query, Multidimensional Expressions (MDX) query, or Data Mining Extensions (DMX) statement against an instance of Analysis Services.

The cmdlets execution of these queries or scripts within input files.

The script that is passed is an XMLA command and following commands are supported: Alter, Backup, Batch, BeginTransaction, Cancel, ClearCache, CommitTransaction, Create, Delete, DesignAggregations, Drop, Insert, Lock, MergePartitions, NotifyTableChange, Process, Restore, RollbackTransaction, Statement (used to execute MDX queries and DMX statements), Subscribe, Synchronize, Unlock, Update, UpdateCells.

This script will also accept JSON commands designed to execute against a tabular database with compatibility mode 1200 or higher.

Module requirements: version 21+ on PowerShell 5.1; version 21 (recent preview) or version 22+ on PowerShell 7.x.

Examples

Invoke discover

Invoke-ASCmd -Server:localhost -Query "<Discover xmlns='urn:schemas-microsoft-com:xml-analysis'><RequestType>DBSCHEMA_CATALOGS</RequestType><Restrictions /><Properties /></Discover>"

Invoke discover 2

Invoke-ASCmd -Database "Adventure Works DW 2008R2" -Query "<Discover xmlns='urn:schemas-microsoft-com:xml-analysis'><RequestType>DISCOVER_DATASOURCES</RequestType><Restrictions></Restrictions><Properties></Properties></Discover>"

Invoke select

Invoke-ASCmd -Database "Adventure Works DW 2008R2" -Query "SELECT {[Measures].[Internet Sales Amount]} ON COLUMNS, BOTTOMCOUNT(NONEMPTY(DESCENDANTS( [Customer].[Customer Geography].[All Customers], [Customer].[Customer Geography].[Customer]), ( [Measures].[Internet Sales Amount] ) ), 10, ( [Measures].[Internet Sales Amount] )) ON ROWS FROM [Adventure Works] WHERE ( [Date].[Calendar].[Calendar Year].&[2008] )"

Invoke select 2

Invoke-ASCmd -Database "Adventure Works DW 2008R2" -Query "SELECT MODEL_CATALOG, MODEL_NAME, ATTRIBUTE_NAME, NODE_NAME FROM [Forecasting].CONTENT"

Invoke with xmla file

Invoke-ASCmd -InputFile C:\MyFolder\DiscoverConnections.xmla

<# DiscoverConnections.xmla is as follows:

 <Discover xmlns="urn:schemas-microsoft-com:xml-analysis">

Default value:None
Required:False
Accept pipeline input:False
Accept wildcard characters:False
