Hello All,

Hi @Sakshi,

 

You should be able to go to Data Source Settings -> Change Source to change your data source to the new Azure MySQL database on Power BI Desktop.

Or you can go to Query Editor -> Advanced Editor to change the query to get data from the new Azure MySQL database on Power BI Desktop.
