Error returned: 'A user name wasn't specified. The exception was raised by the IDbConnection interface.
A connection could not be made to the data source with the Name of 'ca2e0137-f92d-46e1-b457-0fbe860368a3'.
The database operation was cancelled because of an earlier failure.
May i please get some help.
Hi, Check your data source connection string and make sure that is correct and working. Run the report once and try publish. if everything is fine in report builder but still same error then try upload the file in Power BI Service workspace.
Thanks
Hari
