Anonymous , I don't think this addresses the issue.
The issue is that Microsoft uses an ODBC driver to connect to Snowflake for both the desktop application and the 'Cloud Connection' service, but the version used is out of date, and will be unsupported from 30th April 2024.
Correct me if I'm wrong here, but as far as I'm aware, the end user has no control over the version of this driver Microsft is using, and sure that is especially true for the PowerBI Service. Yet our logs show the PowerBI Service specifically is still using 2.24.6.
