Cube refresh with Automation Account in Azure SSAS

问题

I'm currently trying to create an automation runbook to process a cube in Azure. I've tried multiple PowerShell scripts like this one :

$AzureCred = Get-AutomationPSCredential -Name "RefreshTest"
Add-AzureRmAccount -Credential $AzureCred | Out-Null
Invoke-ProcessASDatabase -databasename "MKTGCube" -server "AzureServerName" -RefreshType "Full" -Credential $AzureCred

With that kind of error (despite the fact that I installed the SQLServer module).

Invoke-ProcessASDatabase : The term 'Invoke-ProcessASDatabase' is not recognized as the name of a cmdlet, function,

script file, or operable program. Check the spelling of the name, or if a path was included, verify that the path is

correct and try again.

Or this script :

$connectionName = "AzureRunAsConnection"
try
{
    # Get the connection "AzureRunAsConnection "
    $servicePrincipalConnection=Get-AutomationConnection -Name $connectionName         

    "Logging in to Azure..."
    Add-AzureRmAccount `
        -ServicePrincipal `
        -TenantId $servicePrincipalConnection.TenantId `
        -ApplicationId $servicePrincipalConnection.ApplicationId `
        -CertificateThumbprint $servicePrincipalConnection.CertificateThumbprint 
}
catch {
    if (!$servicePrincipalConnection)
    {
        $ErrorMessage = "Connection $connectionName not found."
        throw $ErrorMessage
    } else{
        Write-Error -Message $_.Exception
        throw $_.Exception
    }
}

##Getting the credential which we stored earlier.
$cred = Get-AutomationPSCredential -Name 'CredMat'

## Providing the Server Details
$ServerName = "AzureServerName"


Invoke-ProcessASDatabase -databasename "MKTGCube" -server $ServerName –ProcessType "ProcessFull" 

$error[0].Exception.Message
$error[0].Exception.StackTrace

With that error message.

Invoke-ProcessASDatabase : Authentication failed: User ID and Password are required when user interface is not

available.

At line:32 char:1

• Invoke-ProcessASDatabase -databasename "MKTGCube" -server $ServerName ...

• ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

  • CategoryInfo : NotSpecified: (:) [Invoke-ProcessASDatabase], ArgumentException

  • FullyQualifiedErrorId : System.ArgumentException,Microsoft.AnalysisServices.PowerShell.Cmdlets.ProcessASDatabase

I think the problem is linked to the credentials because we need to provide ones to access the source database but I have no ideas on how to do it through a PowerShell script. Any idea ?

Thanks a lot.

You need import module Azure.AnalysisServices and SqlServer to your automation account.

You could import these two module from this link and this link.

Note: There is a mistake in your script. You should use Login-AzureASAccount not Add-AzureRmAccount to login, you could use the following example:

$Conn = Get-AutomationConnection -Name AzureRunAsConnection 
Add-AzureAnalysisServicesAccount -RolloutEnvironment "southcentralus.asazure.windows.net" -ServicePrincipal -ApplicationId $Conn.ApplicationID -CertificateThumbprint $Conn.CertificateThumbprint -TenantId $Conn.TenantID 
Invoke-ProcessTable -Server "asazure://southcentralus.asazure.windows.net/myserver" -TableName "MyTable" -Database "MyDb" -RefreshType "Full"
