  For myself this seems to work and for other users they receive this error:

  Errors in the OLE DB provide. We could not establish a connection to the "Server/Instance" Analysis Services server. Please verify that you can connect to this server, and that the SQL Browser redirector service is enabled.

  This a 2016 SSAS Tabluar Model deployed to a production server.

  I can connect to the database engine and analysis services via SSMS on my machine. My colleague can also do this and we both can write SQL/MDX queries.

  I also can connect via Excel (365) from my machine when I get data from Database > Analysis Service within Excel. My colleague receives the above error.

  Any ideas on what to check?

  Thank you.
