I have an Analysis Services Model that was created on visual studio, which was then deployed onto Azure. I tried to rename this model via SQL Server Management Studio, and this seems to be fine and the new name appears when I view the model on the Azure Portal. (But when I view the properties of the model on SSMS, the ID field is still the old name which I can't change)
However, when I try to open the model (in tabular view) on visual studio again, I am getting the error: An error occurred while opening the model on the workspace database. Reason: Another 'Database' object has the 'Old_Name_Of_The_Model' ID.
The model is an import model, so preferably I'd want a way of accessing the project on visual studio without having to re-import the data. I have a backup of the model (Azure Blob Container), but I haven't tested this backup file yet.
