    frankwangtakumi  yes, for cloud connections, we dont need a gateway but need a cloud connection setup. it is a new feature in Power BI.

Seems ok with all the credentials. Is it a new feature that power bi now leading to cloud connections directly if the database is from the cloud?

      Hey, everybody. I don't use encryption and still get this error.
      How to fix it?

      The MySql source doesn't support encrypted connections.

    Hallo Johnbasha- all, 

    I’m currently trying to automate the refresh of a dashboard connected to a MySQL database using Power BI Service (Online).

    Although I have disabled encryption both in Power BI Desktop and in the Power BI Service data source settings, I still receive an error related to encrypted connections when trying to schedule or trigger a refresh online.

    I've checked the following:

    The connection works perfectly in Power BI Desktop.

    Encryption is explicitly disabled in both environments.

    The data gateway is correctly installed and running.

    However, Power BI Service continues to reject the connection, assuming encryption is required.

    I’ve tried many solutions but nothing worked so far.

    Do you have any recommendations or workaround to solve this encryption conflict?

    the issue msg "The MySql source doesn't support encrypted connections. (Source at X.XX.XXX.X:3306;xxx.). The exception was raised by the IDbCommand interface. Table:xxxx."

     

    Thanks in advance,

      It is a bug in Power BI service I guess

      We have set-up a gateway on a VM and now it works

      So PBI service -> gateway -> MySQL
