Hello,
I am trying to connect report server hosted on azure VM from PowerBI android app.
I am getting "server address invalid" error.
Tried with the settings like basic authentication type in rsconfig & Inbound Firewall rules inside VM.
What does Server_address implies in the server details - is that the azuredomain.com ?
What is connection string format for report server on azure VM ?
Any hints please 🙂
Hi,
A valid SSRS 2016 server name is something like this http://myserver.cloudapp.net/reports if you are deploying your server to an Azure VM.
All the best,
Yitzhak
Hi Yitzhak,
Thanks for replying.
myserver what it should be
IPaddress
DNS name - Xyz.northeurope.cloudapp.azure.com
Virtual Machine -
Virtual Network -
or
directoryname which is like Xyz.onmicrosoft.com
Reports are hosted on Azure VM - http://localhost/Reports
Thanks again for your quick response.
No luck. Still same error 😞
Are you able to access the portal from a browser?
Note that for azure VM you also need to configure an endpoint (https://azure.microsoft.com/en-us/documentation/articles/virtual-machines-windows-classic-setup-endp...).
Also make sure your firewall configuration is for public profile (by default you only see the domain profile firewall configuration)
