Connect PowerBI Desktop to InfluxDB REST API

Hello together,

 

I have an InfluxDB and want to connect to the REST Api with Power BI Desktop.

 

When I insert the url to connect to: https://XX.XX.XX.XX:8086/query?db=Test&q=show measurements

I get the following error message:

I have configured the Basic authentication for access:

I installed the certificate on my machine, but still cannot connet to the REST API.

 

Have anyone done this before or do you know how i can solve that error?

 

Best regards,

Pili
