    Hi fmunita ,

     

    I think the firewall will block the connection between Azure and Power BI.

    Notes:

    • Specify the fully qualified server name when connecting (see below for more details).
    • Ensure firewall rules for the database are configured to "Allow access to Azure services."
    • Every action such as selecting a column or adding a filter will send a query back to the database.
    • Tiles are refreshed every hour (refresh does not need to be scheduled). You can adjust how often to refresh in the Advanced settings when you connect.
    • Schema changes are not picked up automatically.

    For reference: 

    Azure SQL Database with DirectQuery

     

    Best Regards,
