When I am connecting Power BI, this error is shown. I cannot figure out the issue as I'm using the same version of all the programs. Where am I going wrong?
I'm scratching my head over this one. If possible can anyone tell me the specifications of their programs so that I can install the same?
Solved! Go to Solution.
After some trial and error, installing mysql-connector-net-8.0.28.msi helped. Now everything is working fine.

Tried it. Still shows the same error. Can you tell me the specifications of your MySQL and connectors so that I can install them?
