    Hi andygill ,

    It seems that the error you’re getting is related to the connection to the SQL Server that hosts the TDS endpoint.

    this error can be caused by various factors, such as:

    • The SQL Server name or instance name is incorrect or not reachable.
    • The connection string or authentication settings for the TDS endpoint in Dynamics.
    • The SQL Server is not configured to allow remote connections.
    • The gateway is outdated or not selected for the dataset.

    Solution:

    • Verify that the SQL Server name and instance name are correct and match the ones in Power BI Desktop.
    • Checking the connection string and authentication settings for the TDS endpoint in Dynamics to make sure they are still correct and up-to-date. You could also try recreating the connection to the TDS endpoint in the Power BI report to see if that resolves the issue.
    • Open the port used by the SQL Server (default is 1433) in the firewall settings.
    • Install the latest version of the gateway and make sure it is selected for the dataset in Power BI service.
