Hello,
I am unable to connect to IBM Netezza via a DirectQuery. I am getting the following error message,
However I am able to connect to IBM Netezza through ODBC connection but its not a live connection. I am looking for a live connection to Netezza database via DirectQuery or any other means.
Thanks,
Jash

Hi @Anonymous ,
Could you please check if you have enabled the "Encrypt connections"? In PowerBI Desktop, click "File->Options and settings->Data source settings". Double click on the "IBM Netezza" in the list, check it.
Best Regards,

Hi @TeigeGao ,
After "unchecking" the encryption box and setting the privacy level as "None" it worked.
Thanks,

thanks @Anonymous , after so long it worked for me after I came across this.
Sure @Anonymous . Thanks!
@Anonymous did you set up the ODBC for this connect before connecting with PowerBI. The "IBM Netezza" connector is not working for me.
