How can I connect my Excel to AtScale when using Parallels and Docker Desktop on the same machine

Forum Admin

I am doing some testing and playing around with the community edition running everything locally on my Macbook - any insight on connecting AtScale and Excel as described in my title?

    I ran into the same need - I went into my Parallel's image and update the Hosts file in "C:\Windows\System32\drivers\etc" and added a line right above "# End of section" that had my IP for my Docker image (used ifconfig in terminal to get it and found it under the bridge101 settings) followed by a host name of my choosing 

    so like NNN.NNN.NNN.NNN atscale 

    then just swap localhost on your XMLA connection string and use that in Excel - worked perfectly
