Unable to connect to Databricks from Power BI Desktop (ODBC error)

Submitted Wednesday Submitted by Wednesday
Since today we can't connect to our Azure Databricks instances through PBI Desktop. It seems like there is an issue with the ODBC driver.   Error message: "DataSource.MissingClientLibrary: The 'Driver' property with the value '{Simba Spark ODBC Driver}' does not match an installed ODBC driver."   Is this a Power BI issue? Maybe an issue in the latest PBI update? PBI Desktop version 2.132.1053.0 ... View more

Hi @Analyst-Rene 

This one belongs to the October version of the feature. Due to a previous release of the wrong version of the Microsoft app store, it caused PBI Desktop to automatically update some features that currently don't work well for it. So you need to uninstall the current version and go to Microsoft Download Center to download the installer and reinstall it.

Unable to use dataflow on Pro workspace

Submitted Wednesday Submitted by Wednesday
I have a Pro Workspace, where I created some Dataflows     They are set up correctly and no issues with the refresh   When I tried to use one of them in my model, I could connect to it and refresh connections/data with no issues in Power BI Desktop but when i published my report, I am unable to refresh the Semantic Model through the service once it is published to https://app.powerbi.com/   I have checked the Semantic Model authentication method and selected PowerPlatformDataflow       Wich is set in the service with     The Dataflow and the Semantic Model are in the same Pro licensed Workspace but I keep getting this error     According to https://learn.microsoft.com/en-us/power-query/dataflows/what-licenses-do-you-need-in-order-to-use-dataflows#power-bi-pro I should be able to use Dataflows in  a Pro Workspace. I did see that there are limitations like, DirectQuery connection option to the dataflow, you need to have Power BI P1 or A3 or higher capacities. So I tried changing it to import mode for that Dataflow and it still failed to refresh.     Why can I not use my Dataflow in my Semantic Model? ... View more
Status: Investigating

Hi @Analyst-Rene 

So what you are saying is that when you use dataflow(legacy),the semantic model that you connect to dataflow can be refreshed normally, right? What is the current version of PBI Desktop you are using? Have you encountered similar issues before this? I see below that some users have reported this issue after upgrading to the August version, so if you downgrade to a previous version, can you use the dataflow connector normally?

Hi all , 

Microsoft Fabric Support and Status | Microsoft Fabric

According to feedback on Microsoft Fabric support, the issue will have a fix deployed by the Mid to late September.
The current solution is: Customers will need to manually modify the query in the Advanced Editor by adding a record as the last parameter. Change the query from: Dynamics365BusinessCentral.ApiContentsWithOptions(null, null, null, null) to: Dynamics365BusinessCentral.ApiContentsWithOptions(null, null, null, [UseReadOnlyReplica = true])

please ensure that the users accessing the embedded report are authenticated. Power Automate buttons require authenticated users to trigger flows and make sure both Power BI and Power Automate are updated to the latest versions.

Paginated reports embedded into Sharepoint unable to get past sign in button

Submitted on ‎08-06-2024 08:19 AM Submitted by on ‎08-06-2024 08:19 AM
Good morning,   We launched a sharepoint site with pages that have embedded Power BI Paginated reports. It was working fine through launch in July until the morning of 8/5. Starting on 8/5, when users click Sign in it spawns a new browser tab which immediately dissapears. After the new tab goes away, the sign in button persists. Example: What's interesting is that before 8/5, we don't recall the 'Open in new tab' option being present. When you click Open in new tab, the url contains this string at the end: "&clientSideAuth=0&fallbackError=%7B%22flow%22%3A%22Rdlembed%22%2C%22source%22%3A%22System%22%2C%22info%22%3A%22redirect_in_iframe%3A+Code+flow+is+not+supported+inside+an+iframe.+Please+ensure+you+are+using+MSAL.js+in+a+top+frame+of+the+window+if+using+the+redirect+APIs%2C+or+use+the+popup+APIs.+%28window.parent+%21%3D%3D+window%29+%3D%3E+true%22%2C%22code%22%3A%22redirect_in_iframe%22%7D" Any ideas?

Hello everyone,   It seems that the transparency of a reference layer in the Azure Maps is not working in Power BI Service. It only works well in Power BI Desktop.
