Essbase DSN

Summary
Essbase DSN
Content
I'm attempting to connect to an Essbase data source in DV for a Fusion Cloud instance and was wondering what the default port and URL look like.
I watched the following video and attempted with my own hostname but I'm still getting "Failed to save connection".

Yes looks like you're using the wrong port

I'll look into that, I'm not 100% sure to be honest. I'm guessing it would be the default for the ERP Cloud.

I'm seeing what I posted below. Assuming that I've got the wrong port or that something is wrong with the URL I used.
Essbase Error 1030818: The client timed out waiting to connect to Essbase Agent. Check your network connections, host and port values, and that Essbase is started.

Can you check in the logs what the error is?
You can find the logs at C:\Users\<your username>\AppData\Local\Temp\DVDesktop\logs

Just a quick one - what kind of Essbbase source? The 12c one baked into OBIEE doesn't work as a source. You can connect but not read any data.

I would check to make sure that the following ports are open for Essbase:
1423 (necessary to create the connection)
32768-33768 (necessary to pull back outline members and data in DV)
Also, your connection string should be server:1423
