I have an SSAS 2012 cube and I need create an excel addin for get data from cube and show it in a pivot table.

What code I need for create pivot table with connection to olap cube.

  • There is an open source project named "OLAP Pivot Table Extensions" which extends the existing Excel Pivot table functionality. I never looked into the source code, but maybe you can find some useful ideas in it. You can find the project at http://olappivottableextend.codeplex.com/ – FrankPl Jun 18 '14 at 15:28
  • Why bother? Excel can connect to an SSAS cube and expose the data as a Pivot Table. The interface is pretty good in Excel 2010 or 2013 - it would take you years of coding to even come close. There are also Excel Cube Formulas if you just want data into a single cell. – Mike Honey Jun 19 '14 at 01:58

There are several tools and APIs to connect from C# to an OLAP cube. Here are some examples, I personally used OLE DB for OLAP which was useful for connecting to the cube and querying with MDX; I built up the queries based on the options chosen by the users from the form.

  • The answer is somewhat helpful to point a user in the right direction, but the resources provided dont really help the user get started on a solution. – Brandon Barney Aug 09 '17 at 12:15
