Bug: Windows PowerBI Desktop ODBC is incompatible with Data Gateway's ODBC
Couldn't find where to submit a bug, so I am forced to use this 'New Idea' button....
Anyway, details:
Windows 10 (with all the latest updates)
+ PowerBI Desktop - latest.
+ ODBC Driver PostgreSQL Unicode(x64) (version 10.0.14986.1000)
Repro (1,2,3 happens on the same physical machine):
1. Create DataSet from a PostgreSQL table retrieved via ODBC.
2. Install On-Premises Gateway.
3. Publish DataSet.
powerbi.com
4. Create Data Gateway with the same details as in 1 (including DSN, full connection string, auth). Make sure connection works by clicking 'Test all connections'. Green.
5. Go to powerbi.com, find your DataSet, click 'Schedule Refresh' and see that you're out of luck (it is disabled/ greyed out) using the gateway you just created in 4.
Again, this is 100% repro.
Figured! Appareantly when working in PowerBI Desktop and creating a DataSet based on ODBC you must select '(None)' from the Data Source Name (DSN) dropdown and paste your connection string to 'Connection String' textbox under Advanced options section (see screenshot below).
Again, make sure you use same connection string when adding a new DataSource under Gateway in your powerbi.com.
