Objects (XMLA)

The XML for Analysis (XMLA) protocol uses two methods, Discover and Execute, to offer a standard way for applications to access information on an instance of Microsoft SQL Server Analysis Services. Because these methods are invoked by using the Simple Object Access Protocol (SOAP) protocol, they accept input and deliver output in XML.

In This Section

The following topics describe the XMLA objects implemented by SSAS.

Method	Description
DiscoverResponse Element (XMLA)	Contains the information returned by an instance of Analysis Services in response to a Discover method call.
