Update online: Change connection string to MYSQL DB with SELECT problem for table PROC

I have figured out why I cannot update from online.

 

I get an error: MySQL: SELECT command denied to user 'XXX' for tablr 'proc'

 

I can read several places that it is a comon problem on MySQL. A lot of plases, like below link, says to ad this to my connection string:

Use Procedure Bodies=false;

But I cant get it to work. I go to Edit Queries - Advanced Editor. Then there is a quere, that loads my table, and I dont know where to insert the Use Procedure Bodies:

 

let
Source = MySQL.Database("MYHOST, "MYDB", [ReturnSingleDatabase=false]),
TABLE = Source{[Schema="XXX",Item="XXX"]}[Data]
in
XXX

There seems no way to apply the first option in your link in powerbi, so far I don't find anywhere to change the connection string.
Try the second option, granting sufficient permission.

I got acces to the PROC table last week and now I can refresh.
