    You can then make use of DefaultDimensionView where you need to join with defaultDimension and pass the value to the value field and can get the name.

    Hi,
     
    So the answer on the question link will resolve your question:
     
    Just check any standard entity that have DimensionDAVS as DataSource and do it on the same way. 

    For example you can check this dataentity:

    Hi,
     
    Can you be more specific on your question? Do you want to add field to report or data entity? Do you mean you want to get the value for each dimension? for example, 001 refer to costcenter1 in case the Dimension is for Cost Center?
     
    Check the below question thread it maybe helps you.
