Thank you for your answer, but unfortunately this won't help
I have installed .net driver before i tried to connect

And may i ask, what do you mean about limiting access based on IP?
I'm already accessed the mysql on the computer installed Power BI

      lehoang4471 , Check user if the password and the third option(I know you checked that, may be space in password, in case of copy paste).  Maybe one of them is wrong.

      Also which version of Power BI and Which version of MySQL, you are using?
