Good Morning, getting an error when trying to load my dashboard to the Report Server. I try to load my Power Bi dashb oard to the Report Server.
The dashboard data is conncected through Snowflake. When I try to load the dashboard to the server this is the error meassage I am getting
"COM error: Microsoft.PowerBi.ReportServer.ASEnginemanagedRoot. The given data sourse kind is not supported. Data source kind:UnknownFunction.
Please try later or contact support. If you contact support, please provide these details"
Solved! Go to Solution.
As per the documentation here Power BI report data sources in Power BI Report Server - Power BI | Microsoft Learn Snowflake is not supported for Scheduled Refresh or Direct Query on Report Server. It only supports "Cached Data" - which means that you can refresh the report in Power BI Desktop (if the model is in import mode) then upload the report to the Report Server.
Since Snowflake is a cloud based service your best option is to put reports using this as a data source onto a workspace in the Power BI cloud service.
