Hello,
i installed PowerBI RS some minutes ago to try Direct Query. If I connect a PowerBI Dashboard with a DataSource for example a Server then I get the following error if I want to use this Dashboard.
Can someone help?

Hello !
What I understood is the report server can’t reach your data source or the connection that you ppublished with a connector that PBIRS doesn’t support.
PBIRS only supports a subset of connectors in DirectQuery like SQL Server, Oracle, SAP HANA, Teradata and if your model is live connection to AS, it’s not direct query against SQL/Oracle.
You may need to use live connection in this case maybe.
