Hi romals29 ,
Which way are you connecting to the mysql data source? For powerbi, the best way is Connect to MySQL database from Power Query Desktop.
take the following steps:
- Select the MySQL database option in the connector selection.
- In the MySQL database dialog, provide the name of the server and database.
- Select the Database authentication type and input your MySQL credentials in the User name and Password boxes.
- Select the level to apply your credentials to.
- Once you're done, select OK.
- In Navigator, select the data you require, then either load or transform the data.
For more details, you can read related document as below:
Power Query MySQL database connector - Power Query | Microsoft Docs
If the problem is still not resolved, please provide detailed error information and let me know immediately. Looking forward to your reply.
Best Regards,
Henry
