Once a report is created with an SSAS source using Connect Live, the mode cannot currently be switched to Import. This is frustrating if we have a report that we decide we want to publish to the web.

It would be GREAT if this capability was enabled!

I experimented with Live Connections and now wish I had not. I have a few reports that I decided do not need to share datasets and cannot switch them.

This feature is needed because once it is created it does not allow the flexibility to modify the queries and add DAX logic.

Allowing this would avoid us to build a yearly snapshot system for our users.

(That they probably won't even use, but they just want to be sure they can have a look at the state of the dwh in the past)

This major flaw prevents me from ever wanting to use Live Connect in the first place.

This is really needed. Live Connection is really slow!!
