External Client connecting to Internal Redshift Serverless Data Share with PowerBI
- 2 years ago
Hi icassiem ,
I guess you are looking for redshift conectivity in Power BI.
Any user with appropriate database credentials can connect to redshift database.
If the database is protected with firewall then On premises data gateway connection is required for Power BI service and appropriate VPN configuration is required to connect from Power BI desktop.
Power BI desktop and service natively support redshift database. However you can use ODBC connection as well.
(Microsoft recommends native connector over ODBC).Please refer to this page for more information: https://learn.microsoft.com/en-us/power-query/connectors/amazon-redshift
I hope I answered your question.If the post helps please give a thumbs up

No, with native you cannot use AWS IAM. You should use basic/db authentication crendeitnals. With ODBC you can use AWS iAM but there few limitations, kindly refer this article

Hi, tharunkumarRTK
Apologies, Please Help
The Basic Auth has been rebuffed. I want to use Native, how do i use DB Credentials with Service SSO? Would this also be Basic or ?
