PowerBI Embedded problem with Direct Query on Azure SQL
- 10 years ago
Direct Query is supported for the Embeded and you would need to configure the datasource after the import, here is how: https://msdn.microsoft.com/library/mt711498.aspx

Hope this helps,

Thanks for the hint!
After setting the credentials using the Path Gateway Datasource operation it's working fine.
Hello,
how do I configure the Path Gateway Datasource. Searched for it but with no luck.
Thanks in advance.

Hello,
I solved it myself. My problem was that I had to update my credentials for my existing dataset. Just select point 7 at the Provision Sample located at the Power BI Embedded sample and enter your credentials for the SQL Server. Updating the connection string was not necessary so I skipped it.

Where exactly do you set the Path Gateway Datasource?

Hello,
I don't know if I configured the Path Gatewy Datasource. But if you want to upload your .pbix-report to your web application you can use the Provision-Example (Provision-Sample). At first you have to upload your example-report (Provision-Sample: Nr. 5). After that you have to update the connection string, because it seems that the credentials you have entered before are not applied to the report uploaded to your web-app. So just select Nr. 7 of the Provision-Smaple and enter your credetials for your database. Then the report should show the data from the database.
