Sound like networking issue, the API might be blocked by a local firewall proxy etc

Hey there!

 

The error suggests that the hostname (omi_svr_apis) is not resolving to an IP address. Try flushing the DNS cache on the affected user’s computer:

  1. Open Command Prompt (Run as Administrator).
  2. Type:
    ipconfig /flushdns
  3. Restart Power BI and try again.

 

Hope this helps!

😁😁
