We have a PostgreSQL database which we have built a Power BI report. we are using direct query mode. Some of visuals are worked fine . I used 123 card in visual to show some data, At that time data is not render and I got OLE DB or ODBC error :[DataSource.Error] PostgreSQL: Exception while reading from stream . error. Only for Card visual.
Hi @Shalaka1 ,
Here are some things you can try:
Go to Edit Queries->Advanced Editor-> add timeout in the connection.
Source = PostgreSQL.Database("server_name", "database_name", [CommandTimeout=#duration(5, 0, 0, 0)]),
Refer to:
Solved: Postgresql: Exception while reading from stream - Microsoft Power BI Community
