    Hello @Ullas Mulbagal Sripathi Rao and welcome to Microsoft Q&A.

    Most of the libraries I have found are rooted in .NET.
    I have found some related threads suggesting pyadmomd , also some difficulties with it.
    Another method adds dll instead of python package (Stack Overflow link).

    Excerpt from analysis-services-developer-documentation

    Although it is possible to build a solution based on the open standards of XMLA and MDX, it's quite rare to do so. There is no documentation other than XMLA and MDX reference to help you, and most community and forum support draws from experiences with .NET or native (MSOLAP) technologies.

    kindly let me know if there is a code snippet in dotnet which connects to SSAS cube. this will help us implement it.
    the pyadmomd doesnt seem to work to connect with .net .
