Hello
Is it possible to create a connection to a cube and specify a windows user other then the current one? This option is displayed when creating a new data source, but it is not possible to select it.

Tarek Demiati Hi Andy,
Two obvious reasons comes to mind :
1 - You are not authorized to alter data sources on the Jet Reports service tiers.
2 - You do not have a Jet Analytics license, therefore you can't provision a cube data source.
Best Regards,
Tarek

Andy Cole Hello, thanks for the reply.
We already have a Jet Data Source pointing to a cube, so I know it is not a licensing issue.
And I am able to create new data sources on the Jet Service Tier. But what I am not able to do is select an authentication type of 'other user' when creating that data source. It is fixed only on 'Windows Authentication (current user)'. So I don't think the reason is either of the obvious ones you suggested.
Could it be that it's just not an option to connect as another user to a cube?
