I am unable to connect power BI server with Azure SQL database. When I try to connect to data sources, I can see only two option
1. Windows authentication
2. Microsoft authentication
the microsoft authenticaltion throws error on entering Azure SQL database credentials
however I am able to connect to the same Azure SQL Database using Power BI Desktop. In power BI desktop it ask for server and Database name and i am able to sign in through microsoft sign in option.
Is there any drriver required for Power BI server. Can you please help !
