Hi everyone,
I was working normally on creating the dashboard yesterday and today I am getting an error in the Powerbi Server. I already tried to reset the credentials but nothing happened... could someone advise?
thank you
Miriam
Hi @miriambb ,
Power Bi has a two hour window to refresh the data. If it is taking less than 2 hours to throw the timeout let's try something.
There is no documentation about the "options" parameters for redshift, but it says you can add options parameters.
https://www.powerquery.io/accessing-data/amazon-redshift/amazonredshift.database
Let's try adding a commandTimeout like in SQL Server
https://docs.microsoft.com/en-us/powerquery-m/sql-database
The idea would be getting in Power Bi Desktop, Transform Data, Source step. Check that Power query code and add a parameter before the last ")" like
AmazonRedshift.Database(ServerName, DatabaseName, [CommandTimeout=#duration(0, 1, 0, 0)])
That will use 1 hour window to resolve the query. By default power query set up at 10 or 15 minutes.
And similar error refer:

Did I answer your question? Mark my post as a solution!
Best Regards

Hi @amitchandak,
I tried that, but nothing happened when I clicked on Clear permissions... those are not disapearing
Does it ever happen to you?
Thank you
Miriam
