PowerBI Custom Data Adapter
I have built a OS data adapter off of a cube view that has a parameter that prompts for entity. I subsequently built PowerBI query to pull data via this data adapter. I can get the PowerBI query to pull data if I hardcode the Entity parameter value in the Custom Subst Vars in PowerBI. What I would like to do is replace hardcoding the Entity value with list prompt for the user. That will let the user decide which entity they want to pull when they refresh the query. Any ideas on how to create this functionality? #PowerBI
OS V9 Excel Add-in Parameters Feature
Hi all, I've been playing with this feature for a bit and it would appear that if you've made a cube view connection to a CV that contains parameters based on "Member Dialog", those parameters don't seem to work as expected. The resulting worksheet does create a space for those parameters but in the cell where you would select your member, there is no dropdown available to open and choose. The cell is completely blank. Upon refresh, I am prompted for those member dialog parameters but even the result I choose is not returned to display on the sheet. Doesn't seem to be any issues if the parameter is based on a Member Filter. Am I doing something wrong or is the use of Member Dialog parameters in Excel add-in simply not possible? There is nothing in the existing documentation that I can find that discusses this. Attaching a screen capture of the Excel results:Application Reports - duplicated dimensions
Wondering if anyone else is seeing duplicated dimension IDs in some of the built-in Application Reports (the example below is based on the "Member Property Changes Audit Report") We're on V9.1 but have seen the same issue in 7 and 8 as well. The results do vary depending on which of the duplicated dimensions you select. If you've also seen this, has OneStream provided any explanation as to why this exists?Top N in Cubeview using BR

Pass through external parameters into dynamic cube view services
Hello, Is there a way to pass a combo box paramater into a cube view service? I think would be through the Service Factory. Since the cube view service runs when the cube view is executed and there is no call as XFBRs or Dashboard extenders, Is there a way to pass parameter values into the cube view service business rule?
Cannot reference member expansion 1 from member expansion 2
Hi, I have a cube view with a straightforward requirement. Below is an example of my requirements using the Golfstream app. My rows are set as follows: Member filter 1: U2#Clubs.ChildrenInclusive:name(UD2: |MFUD2Desc|) Member filter 2: T#2011Q1.ChildrenInclusive:name(Time: |MFTime|, UD2: |MFUD2Desc| The below screenshot shows what this returns. The issue is that I need to reference the member filter 1 member from member filter 2. When I use |MFUD2| from member filter 2, it reverts to my top UD2 member rather than reading my UD2 member from member filter 1. I need this to do a more complicated loop through members, and that loop must take the row's UD2 member into account. Any advice or workarounds? User-created parameters and |CVUD2| do not return what I need.Drill-Down to Stage with Attribute Dimension
Hi everyone, I have two attribute dimensions in my model that I use to filter Cost Centers by Region and Line of Business. The issue is that when I try to drill down on those cells to reach the Stage data using “Load Results for Imported Cells”, I’m not able to get to the maximum level of detail. I assume this happens because the system is filtering by attribute members, which do not exist in the Stage tables. Has anyone experienced something similar or found a solution/workaround for this? Thanks in advance!
Embedded dynamic repeater
I have a cube view with a parameter on Entity |!Entity_select!| that I would like to put in a tabbed dashboard that has one tab for specific Entity member. I am using dashboard type "Embedded dynamic repeater" where the component is data explorer report. Data explorer report has data adapter component to the Cube View. I thought the way to do this would be to use the template parameter values in the collections. But it shows error as attached below. It seems that the template parameter value was not passed to Entity_select parameter. Is data explorer report component compatible for dashboard embedded dynamic repeater? Is there any sample of Embedded dynamic repeater dashboard using data explorer report component? TIA, Nuryana
