Error connecting with Amazon Kinesis Stream in Fabric using Eventstream
Hello friends, I have problem which I'm trying to debug for last few days. I hope somebody can give an approach or solution to this issue.
I have AWS kinesis stream which pushes data every 15 to 30 seconds. I want to create a power BI report. I created an event stream in Fabric, and used a Amazon kinesis stream connector and I have the sink location to EventHouse. Now the issue is Amazon kinesis connector is throwing an error while validating the connection. I have the error as "connector xxxxxxx failed, Reason: E0050002 Kinesis connection validation failed. Please check your kinesis configuration. Details: Org.ache.kafka.config.configException: Failed to validate connection to kinesis stream xxxxx in region us-west-2"
I checked the connection details on AWS kinesis stream like name of stream, region, key id and key secrets everything is same, I have no firewall or virtual network on top AWS layer which would prevent any connection from validation but still the connector doesn't work, error looks genric.
Any help on this issue would help me a lot.
Hi Dataseeker009 ,
Thanks for reaching out to the Microsoft fabric community forum
We understand you are experiencing issues connecting your AWS Kinesis stream to Microsoft Fabric for Power BI reporting. The error message "E0050002 Kinesis connection validation failed. Org.apache.kafka.config.ConfigException" suggests there might be an issue with the connection parameters or permissions.
Here are some steps we recommend helping you troubleshoot and resolve this issue:
- Stream name (case-sensitive!), region (us-west-2), and AWS credentials in Fabric. Try new AWS keys.
- Ensure your IAM role has kinesis:DescribeStream, kinesis:GetRecords, kinesis:GetShardIterator, and kinesis:ListStreams.
-
Please run the command: aws kinesis describe-stream --stream-name --region us-west-2. If this command fails, the issue is likely with AWS, not Fabric.
-
Please verify if any firewalls are blocking outbound connections.
-
If all other options have been exhausted, please delete and recreate the Fabric event stream and connection.

thank you Anonymous the source stream from AWS was behind firewall and wasn't accepting the connection. Once it was public we were able to access it. thanks
