SAP Hana Database object reference error

Hello, guys,

I have this weird error. 
I am using SAP HANA Database, I have all the rights. 
When I try to connect my object and try to choose items, I get this error:

I have the latest Power BI version. Any Idea what could be wrong?

Hey, @lbendlin,

so Microsoft couldn't really fix it, it's maybe related to too much data or a weirdly installed SAP Hana client, however, I was able to bypass or have a workaround using SQL statements directly instead of clicking and adding items.

 

That way it works without any issues, so I recommend doing that.
