I have been trying to change the name of an Azure Analysis Services data source using Visual Studio, but to no avail.

Is it even possible to change the name of an AAS data source once it has been created? If so, how?

    Hey @James H. Robinson

    In case if you are using visual studio , please follow the below steps:

    1. Right click on the Model BIM file and click on view code
    2. This would open the XMLA code page and you can directly update the data source name and all its corresponding references and click save.

    This would be the most efficient way to rename a source :)
