Connect Power Bi desktop to Dev Environment SQL Server (Local Database Not Azure)

‎03-19-2020 07:19 AM

Dear Experts,

 

I want to connect my Sql server database from dev environment ( Dynamics 365 for operations), on my personal laptop not on the remote desktop of the environment, please advise if its possible as for the dev environment we don't have the link for the AxDw Database/SqlServer name.

 

Please advise if it's possible or no.

 

Thank you,

 

Best Regards
