Unable to Connect to Amazon Redshift From ODBC
Hi Anonymous ,
There are some points to you can considerate:
1.Make sure type the correct Amazon Redshift server and database name, also type the correct hostname.
2.Please check if the network issues(such as IP issues).
3.This maybe a permission/authentication error. Please go to “File –> Options and Settings –> Data Source Settings”, under “Global permissions”, select any old Amazon Redshift data source connections and click on clear permission in Power BI Desktop, then connect to it and check if it is successful.
You can refer to the similar issues: https://docs.aws.amazon.com/redshift/latest/mgmt/connecting-refusal-failure-issues.html

FIrst of all thanks for the reply !
I have searched and followed up the steps described in simillar tickets with no success whatsoever. There are currently no other connections available in my global settings since i've removed anything else related to Amazon Redshift.
As for the first 2 bullet points i made sure that everything is ok.
That's why i'm confused about this issue....
