XAML configuration is one of the important features of the OLAP gauge, as it helps users to configure the control entirely through XAML by eliminating the required code in code behind.

<syncfusion:OlapGauge x:Name="olapGauge" CurrentCubeName="Adventure Works" ReportName="SalesReport"
                                         SharedDataManagerName="localManager"

                                         olapshared:DataSource.ConnectionString="datasource=localhost; initial catalog=adventure works dw">
