Unable to connect to SQL analytics endpoint from Power Bi Desktop

Hi ,

I already have a LakeHouse and a SQL analytics endpoint in the lakehouse. However ,I cant connect to SQL endpoint from Power Bi desktop using these methods. When I am trying to connect from OneLake data hub by selecting Lakehouses and then Connect to SQL endpoint ,I keep getting the same error.

Unable to connect

We encountered an error while trying to connect.

Details: "The server name provided doesn't match the server name on the SQL Server SSL certificate. Please see https://go.microsoft.com/fwlink/?LinkId=394782 or try connecting without encryption through the Data Source Settings dialog to continue. (Source at "String SQL Endpoint")"
When I am trying to connect by SQL Server method I am getting this message

I can connect from SSMS with these options.

I haven't found a solution yet to connect to power bi desktop , which is mandatory for me.
Thanks in advance

Please read the recent blog post where certificate checks (and skips) are discussed for Desktop and gateway.

Read the documentation. Decide if you want to skip the certificate check. Implement.
