OLE DB or ODBC Error:[Datasource.Error] OLE DB: The connection returned error code -2147467259..

Using PBI desktop connecting to a cloud-based source using an ODBC connection.

 

Has been working fine until one of the views I'm refreshing has started returning the above error message.

 

I need a definitive "translation"of the error message.

 

I think it is an issue with the data, and need to be able to locate which data as well.

 

Suggestions?

    This is probably coming from calculated columns or relationship can you go to Options > Data loading > And disable the one that detect new relations and the one that import relations from other sources ? 

    Then try again

      Thanks Quentin.

       

      I've isolated the view into a separate desktop file. There are no relationships and no calculated columns.

       

      Turned off the options you suggested. Attempted import. Still get the same error message. :smileyfrustrated:

        So even when you try to import the view in a new PBI file it display this error ? 

         

        Can you post a sample of your data so that I have an idea ? (If it's sensitive you can make them anonymous or not post it as you want)
