Hi HoosierSqlDev,

 

Make sure the address you input for the mobile app should be something like:

http://<servername>/reports or https://<servername>/reports 

 

Instead of inputting server name to connect to report server, using the IP address for a test. Also, please make sure your mobile device was connected to the same network with the Power BI report server.

 

Did you install an other SSRS instance on your machine? If so, please try:

1. Change the Database name like ReportServerPowerBI in order to distinguish the database for SSRS instance. 

2. Check in your Report Server Configuration Manager->Web service URL and Web Portal URL change the port name to other one for a test.

This is all running locally on a Surface Pro 4 (the SSRS instance(s) and the Power BI App).

 

Yes, I've tried with the IP Address (which does work through the browser). I've switched ports and have different db names.

 

Always the same error message as originally given above.

    I am facing the same problem. It is working fine if it accessed using browser and android power bi mobile apps.

    I've tried to use username@domain format just like in mobile apps, but like domain\username format, still it is not working.

     

    Is there any solution for this problem? Thank you.
