Issues regarding power bi report server
Apologies for this change not being mentioned....I forgot to add this to the changelog and release notes (and will be fixing that today).
The May release has a expected change on the AS side of things which will require customer actions to keep some existing scenarios working. As part of a push for security customers will have to explictly include “Encrypt=True;TrustServerCertificate=True” as part of the connection string or apply the “PBI_SQL_TRUSTED_SERVERS” environment variable to their server to Power BI Report Server machine.
Good afternoon,
To make this workaround to be effective it has to be:
setx PBI_SQL_TRUSTED_SERVERS [DDBB Server Name]
It is not enough to introduce the variable, but also include the server name.
Now it works fine!!!
This is done on the connection string inside Power BI Destkop application then republishing it to the Report Server.

Hi Petebro
For me, with Power BI Desktop RS May 2024, and according to the Power Query documentation of the "Sql.Database" function, it is not possible to add the "Encrypt" and the "TrustServerCertificate" options to the connection string.
Could you help me to find tell me how I can do it?
Thanx in advance for your time and your help.
Have an amazing day!
