Hey there!
Sometimes Power BI's internal dependencies (like the Mashup Engine) get corrupted. Uninstall Power BI Desktop completely and reinstall the latest version.
Also, Power BI may not have the correct authentication to access the SQL Server. Try using different authentication modes:
- Windows Authentication (if the SQL Server is on the same domain).
- SQL Server Authentication (enter the username & password).
Hope this helps!
