Odata error 500

hi,

I am new to PowerBI desktop.

I tried get data/odata feed  and got error : 

"OData: Request failed: The remote server returned an error: (500) Internal Server Error. (An error has occurred.)"

 

I can paste the same link into a browser and see data ok.

Any suggestions ?

Thanks, PEter

Any possibility you can post the OData link you are using or is it some internal thing? A fairly long time ago, I remember an issue with the OData connector but it's a bit of a head scratcher that you would be getting a 500 error, which generally indicates an issue on the Server end of things.
