That way, planning data from Oracle EPM Cloud can be retrieved into Oracle Analytics for reporting and analysis. However, this was just a first step in to EPM/Essbase world. There are several others required as well, for example: Support for EPM Cloud/Essbase data sources in Semantic Modeler: this hasn't been provided yet, however we can expect it in January 2025 release of Oracle Analytics Cloud.
