    Hi Anonymous ,

     

    This error means that the client can't find the SQL Server instance. This can happen when at least one of the following problems exists:

    • The name of the computer hosting the SQL Server instance doesn't resolve the correct IP
    • The TCP port number isn't specified correctly

     

    For more details, please refer to

    Troubleshoot connecting to the SQL Server Database Engine - SQL Server | Microsoft Docs

     

    Best Regards,

    Stephen Tao

Where is this coming from - your Power BI Desktop or a gateway/service refresh ?
