SSAS report measure issue

[Anonymous]

I am connecting to a SSAS model with live connection, the report works fine. I can even add one or two report measures to the report and they also work fine. 

When I add a third measure an error box will appear with saying something went wrong: value cannot be null. Parameter name: key 

Has anyone experianced this error before and if so how did you fix it?

Thanks

Getting exactly the same issue here, connected to Azure AS, we get this error when the third measure is created.

Here's a simple workaround to avoid this error:

Instead of clicking on "New measure" on the toolbar, just right-click on any table in the fields list and choose "New measure" from the dropdown menu.

I've noticed that when the error occurs, the new measure is created without a home table, and is listed at the top of the fields list, this may be what's causing the error. With the workaround, it is created on whichever table the right-click was performed on.

I am on 2.57.5068.501 64-bit (April 2018) I have seen other threads with the same error message, however they were all getting the error from other functions such as refreshing or opening a report. My report will open fine it is only when I add three or more report level measures do I get the error. I havent seen this exact issue in any other threads so that is why I opened this one.
