问题 I have an .odc (office data connection) that connects Excel to a Web Service (MSBI, Web PowerBI). It's working fine. I open the odc file, Excel opens up and it is connected to the data source. How can I open this connection directly from R? The odc file contents are: <odc:ConnectionString> Provider=MSOLAP; Integrated Security=ClaimsToken; Identity Provider=https://login.microsoftonline.com/common, https://analysis.windows.net/powerbi/api, xxxxxx-xx-xx-xxxxxx; Data Source=pbiazure://api

问题 The company I work for creates an OLAP Cube Database for each of our clients. I keep up with many things on a daily basis using values in the cubes. Whenever a new clients cube is set up, I add a sheet to the workbook I use, and create a pivot table using that cube. I want to create a macro that checks the server for any cubes that may have been added. I figured doing something like this, below, would be the best way For Each Cube in Server.Cubes MsgBox Cube.Name Next Cube ...but I cannot

问题 Today I received a curious error in one of the OLAP cube I was working on.

Apparently it was a "invalid

Maybe an open-source tool for OLAP? Any ideas? 回答1: You can simulate OLAP functionality using client side tools pointed at a

Mondrian OLAP connection management

孤街醉人 提交于 2020-01-15 12:32:20
问题 What is the recommended pattern for managing Mondrian database connections? I am using Mondrian as a library in a Scala/Play Framework web application. For example: var connection try { connection = DriverManager.getConnection(connection_string).unwrap(classOf[OlapConnection]) val result = connection.createStatement.executeOlapQuery(mdx) // ... use the result ... } finally { if (connection) connection.close } Is calling close in a finally block the right approach? How do I configure a
