I am getting the below error when I try to connect to Kusto from 'Advance Editor'. I've a cross cluster query in the editor. Any idea what might be going wrong?
"[DataFormat.Error] Invalid URI: The hostname could not be parsed." power query.
Hi,
I would need additional details to investigate this. You can private message me the query, or ask your question in the internal Microsoft Kusto Discussion mailing list.
Hi @arunaj ,
First, if your Power BI Desktop isn't the latest version, please upgrade to the latest version: 2.88.1144.0 and try it again.
Then, I have tested with the Cluster provided on this official document: Visualize data using the Azure Data Explorer connector for Power BI. And it works well. How about you?
In addition, @artemus , could you please provide any help? I find you posted a related reply here: Can't connect to Kusto from "Get Data" menu, but I can connect to Kusto using the blank query.
Is this still occuring? There were some fixes that may have impacted you. If not, could you IM me the cluster url, and I'll see about getting it on the allow-list.
Best regards
Icey
