PowerBI desktop connection to impala

Hi,

 

I have a working connection to Impala from PowerBi desktop (Dec-2020) till last week. This week, I started getting the below error "ODBC: ERROR [08S01] [Microsoft][ImpalaODBC] (120) Error while retrieving data from in Impala: [08S01] : ImpalaThriftAPICallFailed".

 

From my laptop I am able to connect to Impala via Tableau and other tools. It is only failing via PowerBi desktop.

 

Anyone has faced a similar issue or have a suggestion for me?

 

Regards,

Murali

Hi , @Anonymous 

Which version of powerbi are you currently using?
For now, you can try to reinstall the old version and wait for the next version to be released.

Previous monthly updates to Power BI Desktop 


If the problem is still not resolved, it is recommended to open a support ticket to let engineers look into the issue on your side.
