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.

I can't find how to achieve this. How can we add "TrustServerCertificate=True;Encrypt=True;" to a Power BI Desktop report in direct query mode? Is it possible to post detailed step by step instructions with screen captures or something ?
The official documentation is saying this is possible, but not how to do it:
Thanks !
