    Currently this is by design. Only native views are considered as data sources in cube settings. This is because native views have properties for row, column and filter dimensions. MDX views don’t have this.

    Hi Scott,

    Thanks for the update. I see, thought it could be the case.

    Still, It would be good to recognize somehow from the MDX Query. Potentially scanning the query and checking what is before the “ON COLUMNS” and “ON ROWS”, and the WHERE Clause.

    This would be a good enhancement, if that's possible.

    At the current client where this was noticed, they are Slice Users, so the MDX view is more common than Native.

    Thanks!
