Hi @Anonymou_s ,

 You need to install a gateway 

https://learn.microsoft.com/en-us/power-bi/connect-data/desktop-use-directquery#publish-to-the-power...

  • To connect the Power BI service to DirectQuery data sources other than Azure SQL Database, Azure Synapse Analytics (formerly SQL Data Warehouse), Amazon Redshift, and Snowflake Data Warehouse, install an on-premises data gateway and register the data source.

Here is some additional information about gateways:

I have a On premise gateway (personal mode) on my pc. i tried to publish my reports in direct query mode. Even for those reports it didnt work??
