Hi - I want to connect a database from MySQL workbench 8.0 to Power BI Desktop. Downloaded and installed mysql-connector-net-6.6.5.msi but still getting below message -
Not sure which connector to download. Please provide the link to the connector or any other help on this highly appreciated.
Thanks,
Sanj

Hi @sanjeev803 ,
Based on my test, PowerBI of the latest version supports MySQL Connector/NET 8.0 (https://dev.mysql.com/downloads/connector/net/), please restart your PowerBI Desktop after installing the MySQL driver.
Best Regards,
Teige
