Redshift dataset Refresh not working
- 9 years ago
I've not been able to get the Redshift connector to refresh in the Power BI service. I've gone back to the ODBC connector and that works.

Guys I do NOT believe MS has delivered the ability to refresh from the BI Service from Redshift. They only currently offer it (in Preview) for the desktop application. My last contact with someone on the PBI support side said end of 2016 but I have not seen this. Do you have a different understanding.
thanks

This solution is hanging. The Redshift connector was announced here
https://powerbi.microsoft.com/en-us/documentation/powerbi-desktop-connect-redshift/
https://powerbi.microsoft.com/en-us/blog/building-power-bi-reports-on-top-of-amazon-redshift-data/This last article, dated Aug 1 2016, said the Redshift connector doesn't yet work for "Power BI Gateway or PowerBI.com for refresh scenarios, which will come in the next couple of months."
These threads have essentially the same issue:

https://community.powerbi.com/t5/Integrations-with-Files-and/Scheduled-Refresh-from-Amazon-Redshift/m-p/50587#M4404It's been six months since "a couple of months" was promised. Any news? This is a big issue for my application, where I need to do scheduled refreshing in the PBI service, just like any other database.

Hello All,
Any update on RedShift Connector for Power BI is supporting Power BI Gateway or PowerBI.com ?
Please share the details, if you have.
Thanks,
John
