Hi Power Bi community !
I'm dealing with a problem today but i don't have any issue. Indeed I want to know how to get data from SQL Server from an external server in Power Bi Desktop. Do I enter the Ip adress in the server name ? or IPADRESS:ServerName ? If not where I have to mention th ip adress ?
Thanks in advance,
Ghislain

Hi @Ghislain,
I just verified that I can connect successfully to one of my remote SQL Server by IP address with my Power BI Desktop. I'm using (IP,Port) for the Server field in Power BI Desktop.![]()
