execute2D: olapR execute2D Methods
Takes a Query object or an MDX string, and returns the result as a data frame.
Usage
execute2D(olapCnn, query)
execute2D(olapCnn, mdx)
Arguments
olapCnn
Object of class "OlapConnection" returned by OlapConnection()
query
Object of class "Query" returned by Query()
mdx
String specifying a valid MDX query
Details
If a query is provided:
execute2D
validates a query object (optional), generates an mdx query string from the query object, executes the mdx query across, and returns the result as a data frame.
If an MDX string is provided:
execute2D
executes the mdx query, and returns the result as a data frame.
Value
A data frame if the MDX command returned a result-set.
TRUE
and a warning if the query returned no data.
An error if the query is invalid
Notes
Multi-dimensional query results are flattened to 2D using a standard flattening algorithm.
