Joining in on the party. I have the same error when trying to add azure sql db's as datasources.

 

I can set the encryptionalgorithm to RSA-OAEP to avoid this error but then I get a 

 

{'error': {'code': 'UnknownError', 'pbi.error': {'code': 'UnknownError'}}}

 

Possibly because for cloud datasources it needs to be set to none according to the docs. But maybe it can help you to set EncryptionAlgorithm to RSA-OAEP (only accepted value according to docs) and see what happens.

    Hi , 
    I am  able to connect to odata source if it is of type "https" , but cannot connect to "http", I am getting same issue as above. 

    is "http" considered as on premise connection?
