Limit the number of simultaneous ODBC connection

Hello comunity,

I'm a fresh user of power BI and I've got a question neebies.

I'm trying to connect my report to a database where the number of simultaneous connection is limitate .

When I import many table, power BI create one connection per table.

Is it possible to limit this capacity to one ODBC connection per report?


Thank you.

Hi @pepito

 

Power BI will create at least one connection for each query, so it is not possible to have one connection for multiple queries.

 

You could refer to this article.

 

In addition, you could post your idea in here.

 

Best Regards,
