Microsoft Analysis Services Projects 2022

Package includes support for Tabular and Multidimensional projects. After creating a new model project by using one of the templates, you can begin model authoring by using the designer tools and wizards included in the chosen project type. Among other things, you can import existing models from a server or start a new, blank model project.

Analysis Services modeling projects integrate with source control, such as Team Foundation Server and many third-party source control plug-ins. If you have configured Visual Studio to use source control, you can use check in/check out from Solution Explorer.

Preview Release Candidate Builds If you'd like to have early access to release candidate builds before they are published to the VS Gallery, we’re making available to give customers an opportunity to provide feedback prior to finalizing releases. To access the release candidate of the extensions in Visual Studio, you may do so by creating a “private gallery” and entering the following settings.

• Navigate to Tools > Options and then select Extensions under Environment.
• Under "Additional Extension Galleries", enter the following details:
• Name: Microsoft BI VSIX Preview
• URL: http://aka.ms/VSIX2022

After entering these settings, your "Manage Extensions" dialog will show updates for the extension when there is a new release candidate that you can install to provide feedback for a day or two before the VS Gallery VSIX is updated.
