Would like to be able to access IBM Informix Data Sources

- fbcideas_migusrNew MemberThanks for the feedback, Brett - Currently you can access Informix using the Power BI Designer or Power Query, via ODBC data source. Did you try this approach? Any show-stoppers that you found with it?
- btrevethanNew MemberHi Miguel I did try this. I was specifically talking about Power Query. Its ok for me but using just an ODBC data source can be a bit much for some business users/analysts. Cheers Brett
- dilip_sahuNew MemberNO I am unable to access informix
- mmorinNew MemberI have IBM Informix setup through ODBC (V.4.10.00.16157) and in Power BI Desktop when I try to pull from ODBC it will give an error. DataSource.Error: ODBC: SUCCESS_WITH_INFO [01004] [Informix][Informix ODBC Driver]Data truncated. So I can not pull in any tables/columns for our UCCX 9.0.2 server. Any ideas?
