Hello Team,

    Hey,

     

    This can happen if your firewall blocks access to the SQL endpoint of staging lakehouse. You should allow traffic on port 1433 to flow to it.

     

    ·       Protocol: TCP

    ·       Endpoints: *.datawarehouse.pbidedicated.windows.net, *.datawarehouse.fabric.microsoft.com, *.dfs.fabric.microsoft.com

    ·       Port: 1433

    Bumping this, still having issues connecting to Gen 2 Dataflows as well from desktop

     

    Is this still the recommended fix?

      Yes. To be clear: the problem will exist as long as your network does not have a line of sight to the warehouse\lakehouse.

    Did you try writing the outputs of the Dataflow Gen2 to Lakehouse table?

    (Add data destination)

     

    Then connect Power BI to the Lakehouse table(s).

     

    Unless you are writing the outputs of the Dataflow Gen2 into a data destination, I guess you could might as well use a normal Power BI Dataflow?
