Not able to connect to Lakehouse SQL endpoint
- Anonymous2 years ago
Hi jvangrunderbeec ,
The chief must already have an existing lakehouse. Create a lakehouse in Microsoft Fabric. And be able to successfully open the SQL analytics endpoint file.
Then you can connect to existed lakehouse in desktop, refer to below screenshoot:
For more details, you can read below document:

Hi ,
I already have a LakeHouse and a SQL analytics endpoint in the lakehouse. However I cant connect to SQL endpoint from Power Bi desktop using these methods. I keep getting the same error.
Unable to connect
We encountered an error while trying to connect.
Details: "The server name provided doesn't match the server name on the SQL Server SSL certificate. Please see https://go.microsoft.com/fwlink/?LinkId=394782 or try connecting without encryption through the Data Source Settings dialog to continue. (Source at "String SQL Endpoint")"
I can connect from SSMS with these options.
I haven't found a solution yet to connect to power bi desktop , which is mandatory for me.
Thanks in advance
Are you using the SQL endpoint connection string?

Having the same issue.
Seems as though the connection between the sql endpoint for a lakehouse and power bi desktop is faulty.
In my case, I simply waited a few hours, and then the connection was suddenly available again.
