Hi

This is the subset I'm using in this example. Please note that it's saved with an Alias selected.

: Alias.PNG (8.25 KiB) Viewed 13484 times

I'm using following request to retrieve information about above subset:
https://localhost:12354/api/v1/Dimensio ... 'Default')

This is what I get back:

: Capture.PNG (13.11 KiB) Viewed 13484 times

Can't see a reference to the alias that is used. How can I retrieve that information?

Do you know?

Hi Dimix,

The Alias isn't an official, documented property of a subset in the REST API, but it's accessible if you explicitly ask for the "Alias" property like so (threw in a quick element count example as well for you):

Code: Select all

.../api/v1/Dimensions('plan_business_unit')/Hierarchies('plan_business_unit')/Subsets('Default')?$select=Name,UniqueName,Expression,Attributes,Alias&$expand=Elements/$count

Result:

: SubsetRestApiWithAlias.png (23.42 KiB) Viewed 13446 times

Hope that helps!
Mike
