Connecting PowerBI with MySQL running in Docker

I have this silly error when trying to connect my MySQL Database running in Docker from PowerBI :

"Object reference not set to an instance of an object"

I searched every topic, forums and question asked regarding this message but none of them seems to help my case.

  • MySQL Server version 5.7.21
  • PowerBI Version 2.110.1161.0 64-bit October 22

Database runs fine if open it with a GUI.

Is there something I'm missing ?

  • AvA , outside the docker, make sure you are able to access database using MySQL Workbench

     

    Also, make sure the latest .net driver is installed
