Semantic Model Management

The Semantic Model Management Interface displays semantic models that users have permission to view or manage, and users can view, create, or edit semantic models.

The list of semantic models is displayed in a tree structure organized by business domain.

Clicking the create button in the top right corner of the interface allows the creation of different types of semantic models:

  • SQL Semantic Model
  • MDX Semantic Model
  • WASM (SQL) Semantic Model

Creation Wizard​

Clicking the create button opens the Create Semantic Model wizard, where you can select an existing data source and then choose a catalog.

The Catalog corresponds to the Schema used to isolate physical tables in some databases, the database instance Database used to isolate physical tables in other databases, and the Catalog used to isolate models in XMLA data sources.

After selecting the service directory, proceed to the next step, enter a unique model name and associated business domain (optional), choose whether to use MDX modeling, and click create.

Whether to use MDX modeling:

  • Yes: Create MDX model
  • No: Create SQL model

Manage Semantic Models​

In the list of semantic models, you can add and delete models. Clicking the name of a semantic model navigates to the semantic model editing interface, where you can maintain and create semantic models.

Upload Model​

Clicking the upload button allows you to upload saved model files. Before uploading, you can set the name, associated business domain, and data source for the new model.
