Error connecting to PostgreSQL from PowerBI Desktop

Hi,

I am running into issues connecting to our on-prem PostgreSQL database from PowerBI desktop.

But I don't have any issues connecting to the same PostgreSQL server from other tools such as pgadmin.

Any help with this is appreciated.

 

Thanks,

John

Hi - Please ignore this. I am able to establish connection after using server:port in connection string to Postgres database.

Thanks,

John
