For more information, see the definitions for balanced hierarchy and unbalanced hierarchy in section 1.1.

IS_VIRTUAL

xsd:boolean

xsd:boolean

When true, indicates that write back to the hierarchy is enabled; otherwise false.

DIMENSION_UNIQUE_SETTINGS

xsd:int

A list of values that specifies which columns contain unique values:<226>

  • 0x00000001 - Member key columns establish uniqueness.

  • 0x00000002 - Member name columns establish uniqueness.

HIERARCHY_ORDINAL

xsd:unsignedInt

The ordinal number of the hierarchy across all hierarchies of the dimension.

DIMENSION_IS_SHARED

xsd:boolean

When true, indicates that the dimension is shared; otherwise false.<229>

HIERARCHY_IS_VISIBLE

xsd:boolean

When true, indicates that the hierarchy is visible; otherwise false.

HIERARCHY_ORIGIN

xsd:unsignedShort

Yes

A bitmask that determines the source of the hierarchy.

  • 0x0001 - Identifies user-defined hierarchies.

  • 0x0002 - Identifies attribute hierarchies.

  • 0x0004 - Identifies key attribute hierarchies.

  • 0x0003 - The default restriction value.

HIERARCHY_DISPLAY_FOLDER

xsd:string

Display folder for the hierarchy.

INSTANCE_SELECTION

xsd:unsignedShort

A list of values that provides a hint to the client application about how to display the hierarchy values. Valid values include the following:

  • 0 - NONE (No hint is suggested.)

  • 1 - DROPDOWN type of display is suggested.

  • 2 - LIST type of display is suggested.

  • 3 - FILTERED LIST type of display is suggested.

  • 4 - MANDATORY FILTER type of display is suggested

GROUPING_BEHAVIOR

xsd:unsignedShort

Recommends to client applications how to build queries within the hierarchy. Valid values include the following:

  • 1 - Client applications are encouraged to group by each member of the hierarchy.

  • 2 - Client applications are discouraged from grouping by each member of the hierarchy.

STRUCTURE_TYPE

xsd:string

Indicates the type of hierarchy. Valid values include the following:

  • Natural

  • Unnatural

  • Unknown

The response has the following definition.
