Hi there! I am having trouble understanding how advanced connections parameter values work in power bi when using google bigquery. I don't really know what you mean by the numbers that are entered and what measurements they are in, as well as what the numbers after the colon mean. It would be great if you could guide me and help me understand it, please. Thank you so much!
Solved! Go to Solution.
Connection timeout: how long can it take to establish a connection.
0.00:01:01 means 0 days 00 hours 01 minute and 02 seconds. So the connection timeout is 62 seconds.
Command timeout: how long can it take before the first piece of data is returned.
Note that these timeouts are independent of the Power BI service timeout.
