Azure CosmosDB - MongDB - Expression.Error: Access to the resource is forbidden

Hi,

 

When connection PowerBI Desktop to our Azure Cosmos DB with MongoDB underneath we can make the connection, see the database, see the tables, but when finally trying to add the table fields to the reports we get following error:

 

Expression.Error: Access to the resource is forbidden

 

What is the status on the connection to the Azure Cosmos DB? Is there a timing?

Is there a workarround available?

 

Thanks in advance.

Kind Regards,

Pieter de Zeeuw

Hi pdezeeuw,

I find a similar post for this problem, youcould try to refer to Cosmos DB connection issuee   and Visualize Azure Cosmos DB data by using the Power BI connector  for details.

By the way, you also need to check whether your credential is correct and have permission  to access it, you could delete the permission in PowerBI and re-enter it to see whether it work or not.
