I'm trying to create a new SSAS tabular model with Dynamics 365 as source.
When I try the connection with Odata API 9.0 or 9.1 in Visual Studio, it's not working (see file in attached for the error message)9757-screenshot-1.png

----------

Everything is working fine with version 8.1/8.2.
Url used looks like :
https://mytenant.crm4.dynamics.com/api/data/v9.0

Is it a limitation in SSAS or can i consider this as a bug ?

Moreover, trying the same connection (with Odata API 91) works fine in Power BI Desktop.

I try to do that with :

  • Visual Studio 2017 (version 15.9.21) and Analysis Services extension (version 2.9.6)
  • Visual studio 2019 (vrsion 16.5.4) and Analysis Services extension (version 2.9.8)

With version 8.2, there are no problems and the things are working well

    Hi,

    SQL Server Analysis Services (SSAS) is currently not supported in the Q&A forums, the supported products are listed over here https://learn.microsoft.com/en-us/answers/products (more to be added later on).

    You can ask the experts in the dedicated SSAS forum over here:
    https://social.msdn.microsoft.com/Forums/sqlserver/en-US/home?forum=sqlanalysisservices

    (Please don't forget to accept helpful replies as answer)

    Best regards,
    Leon
