Hey Vinter!

 

We are running into the same problem, we have installed the connector but are still facing the same problem. I will today look for workarounds/solutions, and will get back later today or tomorrow.

      Hi again,

       

      what I did yesterday was that instead of publishing  from PBI Desktop, I uploaded the .pbix file from PBI Online.

      "Get data"-tab, under files, and select your .pbix file, after that schedule refresh worked fine!

       

      Try that :)

        KevinEpiSound vinter I have the same problem & exact error message..Get data don't help..if you have any other suggestions. 

         

        Maybe my case is a bit different. The personal gateway is installed on Azure VM ( always on ) and I try to upload the PBIX from my laptop. MySQL domain is different than in Laptop or VM. When I refresh pbix from my laptop is working great ( at the beginning I have the same issue but I downloaded the latest net provider as also MySQL workbench & utilities )..

         

        Hope there is a solution or workaround...First time I connect to MySQL so no experience..
