Able to connect Snowflake using Feb version but not latest version of Power BI desktop

Hi Experts,

 

I need your help in resolving the issue while connecting to Snowfake using latest versions, post Feb 2022 release.
When I am connecting to Snowflake using the latest version I am facing 'Value cannot be null. Parameter name: source' error . Below is the screenshot.


But while I am connecting from Feb 2022 version I am able to connect and see the tables as well. Below is the screenshot. Please suggest. Thank you.


Regards,

Vasan

    This issue is with the database name in snowflake. Initially it is having hyphens , due to which I am be able to connect to tables, after ranaming database name (replaced hyphen with underscore) the issue is resolved. Thank you.

    Hi Anonymous ,

    Thank you for your suggestion.
    I tried it but no luck. The issue still persists. 
    Even I can't open the report ,developed on Feb 2022, in latest release.

      Hi Vasan ,

      If you previously used the built-in connector for Snowflake in Power BI Desktop, please try to connect Snowflake by ODBC connector.
