Does PowerBI Connect to MySQL on OVH Cloud?

Hi 

Has anyone used PowerBI to connect to MySQL db on OVH Cloud? 

If not, does it connect to any DB on the OVH cloud? 

If not, is there any workaround to connect to DB on MYSQL from PowerBI to bring data in near real-time? 

 

We could not find the connection option.

    There is a connector in Power BI desktop to connect to MySQL. See this - https://docs.microsoft.com/en-us/power-query/connectors/mysqldatabase

    Power BI Desktop can connect to MySQL if the MySQL database is in a cloud environment as long as the cloud provider provides a supported method to connect to the database. There should be a way to connec to their cloud environment so I suggest you speak with your cloud provider and discuss the options.
