Failed to update data source credentials: The ODBC 64-bit driver 'HDBODBC' could not be found.

I have connected PBI Desktop with HANA Database through "SAP HANA database" and able to consume the data through simple SQL query. However, when I am trying to publish the same into Service, getting the error below. Can anyone advise how this can be fixed to successfully refresh the data?

Hi @Anonymous ,

To use SAP HANA, you must have the SAP HANA ODBC driver installed on the local client computer for the Power BI Desktop's SAP HANA data connection to work properly. You can download the SAP HANA Client tools from SAP Development Tools, which contains the necessary ODBC driver. Or you can get it from the SAP Software Download Center.

For further information, please refer to Connect to SAP HANA databases in Power BI Desktop . Do pay attention to the considerations and limitations.

Best regards,
