How to create Analysis Services Multidimensional Project template in Visual Studio 2019?

Question

I'm trying to follow this tutorial. I use VS2019 Community and I've installed Microsoft Analysis Services Project extension. But when I try to create a new "Analysis Services Multidimensional and Data Mining Project" all I can see in the list of installed Analysis Services templates is "Analysis Services Tabular Project".

What else is missing here?

Answer 1

While I have not been able to figure out any way to get the multidimensional project types in there. For training I have taken a projectfile from Adventureworks github: https://github.com/Microsoft/sql-server-samples/releases/tag/adventureworks-analysis-services

Opened it in visual studio 2019, cleaned it out and have it ready for personal use now. I know this is not a solid fix, but at least it might give something to work with for now.
