Element 'return' was not found. Line 1, position 231 | System.Xml.XmlException | ReadStartElement

Hi,

I am using Power BI Desktop Version: 2.121.644.0 32-bit. I was testing to get data from SQL SERVER ANALYSIS SERVICE DATABASE before buying PowerBI license.

I got input request from PowerBI for DISCOVER_PROPERTIES.

And our server returns SOAP request to PowerBI, but it gives the following Error Message:
Element 'return' was not found. Line 1, position 231.

 

PowerBINonFatalError:
{"AppName":"PBIDesktop","AppVersion":"2.121.644.0","ModuleName":"Microsoft.PowerBI.AdomdClient.dll","Component":"Microsoft.AnalysisServices.AdomdClient.XmlaReader","Error":"System.Xml.XmlException","MethodDef":"ReadStartElement","ErrorOffset":"28","ErrorCode":""}

 

Stack Trace:
System.Xml.XmlException
at System.Xml.XmlReader.ReadStartElement(String name)

 

Here's the SOAP request that we're returning. Please tell me what response is expected by Power BI :
