Regarding Power BI tool Version

 

Getting this error while connecting to oracle database from PBID

 

Details: "Oracle: ORA-12154: TNS:could not resolve the connect identifier specified
"

 

Oracle version is 12c ,64 bit.

 

History:

Earlier iam connecting oracle database which is of 32bit and my PBID of 64 bit. So to solve connection issues , i have installed PBID of 32 bit and iam able to connect successfully. Now i want to connect oracle 12c database,64 bit but PBID is giving above error.

 

is it not possible to connect oracle databases of different (64/32 bits) with  single PBID??
