Using Q&A and Connect Power Bi with Analysis Service

Hello,

I used PowerBI to create a model from an SQL satabase Datasource..

I build model on PowerBI and a Dashboard..

everything went fine and Q&A worked with me fine ..

the problem appeared when I tried to create a PowerBI Dashboard on Analysis Service DataSource..

 the Q&A feature didn't work with me however I activate Q&A feature from site..

 

why it worked with PowerBI model but didn't work with AS model

Hi @Anonymous,

According to your description, you connect live to SQL Server Analysis Services data sources from Power BI Service and wants to use the Q&A feature, right? If that is the case, what version of your SQL Server Analysis Service?

As per this article, currently, the Q&A feature is only available for SQL Server 2016 Analysis Services data sources. Based on my test, when I connect to SQL Server 2016 Analysis Services tabular model, Q&A works as expected, you can check the following screenshots.

However, when I connect to SQL Server 2014 Analysis Services tabular model, Q&A is not working. Thus, please ensure that you are connecting to SQL Server 2016 Analysis Services data sources.

Thanks,
