Issue connecting to SQL Server 2016 Reporting Services server from iPad
jayeckles I am still struggling with connecting Power BI to SQL Server 2016 from Power BI iPhone App. Rest works fine. If possible can you please let me know what server name, username and password do we need to pass while connecting. I get an error related to invalid server credentials.
Thanks !
add 'http://' before the server name. It should work!

'Make sure that you are using SQL 16 Reporting Services Server address'
Any setting required that I am missing from my end ?

Hi,
The address you input for the mobile app should be something like http://ssrs.contoso.com/reports (or https).
Depending on your authentication type and active directory settings, the user name should be either <username>, <domain>\<username> or <username>@<domain>.
If your still seeing this issue, can you please provide us with more info?
1. Which SSRS 2016 version are you using?
2. Are you using http or https? (and if https - is your SSL certificate a self signed certificate?)
3. Did you configure any non-default authentication settings on your SSRS server? (The app currently doesn't support custom authentication such as form)
4. Is your server hosted in your corporate network, or an Azure VM?
Thanks,
-David
