Hello Power BI champions,
Quick question, I try to connect Power BI Desktop to HDinsights spark (HDI 3.5 / Spark 2.0), but I keep receiving this error : ODBC: ERROR [HY000] Error from server: bad status : HTTP/1.1 502 bad gateway.
Can anyone help please ? Thank you !
@zakariaellaoui,
Are you able to connect to HDinsight spark using the Spark connector in Power BI Service? You can follow the guide in this article: https://docs.microsoft.com/en-us/power-bi/spark-on-hdinsight-with-direct-connect .
Also you can create a ODBC data source for HDinsight spark, then check if you can connect to the ODBC data source in Power BI Desktop.
Regards,
Lydia
