Good day Thank you for the reply and information. However, I have followed these steps prior to posting on this board. The credentials are correct as I am able to access the DB via MongoDB Compass Application. Is the PowerBi desktop versions essential because i am using the one from teh App Store?
Hi @Anonymous ,
The reason for this error may be login credentials and whitelisted IP address issues.
You can try to clear the data source permissions in Power BI Desktop - File - Data Source settings - and re-edit.
Make sure you have the latest version of Power BI Desktop:
Download Power BI Desktop from Official Microsoft Download Center

I have been able to access the ODBC Ansi driver, but when tesing the connection it is not responding. I have double checked the IP address details, which is correct. I am completely lost at this stage and require your assistance?
