Table is not visible in data source

Hi

I have added a new table in my local MySQL database but the new table is not available when I connect the same database in Power BI desktop.

How to sort out this issue.

May you please help me on this 

 

Thank you in advance

  • - clear Power BI cache

    - specify another table first and then modify the Power Query code to your tabe

        Is there anything special about the new table? Binary or spatial Field types?

    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:

    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
