Hi all,
Using Power BI Report Server
Trying to create a new data source to SQL Server
I used connection string like this
Data Source = ServerName;Initial Catalog = my_db
I'm using my Windows credentials
But I still cannot connect
Is my connection string correct
The server name and Catalog(db) are stright from SSMS.
Thanks,

Yes this looks correct
eg Data Source=ABCD;Initial Catalog=contoso
you may use build connection and Test Connection to check :
I think, it is correct. With SQL datasource you can also use:
ServerName;my_db
If still cannot connect, which error mesage is raised?
