I want to specify these two setting when connecting to a database:
multisubnetfailover=True;applicationintent=ReadOnly
I'm using an ODBC connection to connect to the databaseand the connection string looks like this:
driver={SQL Server Native Client 11.0};server=XYXServer;database=MyDatabase;multisubnetfailover=True;applicationintent=ReadOnly
Im able to use the connection string similar to the above to connect and access the data in the PowerBi Desktop and build my reports. Issue is when I use the same connection string to add a ODBC DataSource to the Enterprise gateway(From the manage Gateways page) it fails with the below error.
Error:
Version:
13.0.1700.1333
Underlying error code:
-2147467259
Underlying error message:
The 'Driver' property with value '{SQL Server Native Client 11.0}' doesn't correspond to an installed ODBC driver.

Hi @vinesh,
You can refer to below thread about how to configure the odbc data source:
In addition, why don't you directly get data from sql datasource? Sql connector was higher performance than odbc driver.

Hi, that didn't help. The issue still exists. Are there different formats of the ODBC connection strings for PowerBI Desktop and the Enterprise Gateway?
Hi @vinesh,
>>The 'Driver' property with value '{SQL Server Native Client 11.0}' doesn't correspond to an installed ODBC driver.
Based on your error message, the issue is related to odbc client version, please modify it to the current installed version.
Reference link:
Microsoft SQL Server ODBC Driver connection strings
Check the ODBC SQL Server Driver Version (Windows)
