Error while connecting PostGres to Power BI
I'm trying to connect my Power BI Desktop to Post Gres SQL.
I get the following error when I tried to connect.
Details: "Loading assembly file 'System.Runtime.CompilerServices.Unsafe, Version=4.0.4.1, Culture=neutral, PublicKeyToken=b03f5f7f11d50a3a' failed for data source type 'PostgreSQL'"
With the same credentials, im able to connect to the MY SQL workbench

Hi, Gandhar09
First, you can check if the current version and the NET Framework are compatible. To use this connector, you can check if you fulfill the current requirements:
Power Query PostgreSQL connector - Power Query | Microsoft Learn
In the case below there is feedback from other community members that there is an incompatibility when connecting at version 4 and above:

Thank you for the solution. I unistalled the lastest version and re-installed previous version npgsql 4.0.10.
Re-starting the system after doing this was helpful. Thank you!
