Also check if MySQL is limiting access based on IP. If yes, then you need to get your ip added
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
and where do i add my ip in Power Bi?lehoang4471 , if on the computer where you have power bi, you are able to access the MySQL using MySQL browser, then it is not IP related issue.
refer these for ip
