Hello everyone and please help!
I have created a report that works fine and is updated in the desktop version of Power BI, however, as soon as I publish it in the workspace, it throws an error when updating
I followed the recommendations and installed AccessDatabaseEngine_X64.exe and also checked the Excel version, which is also X64, but it didn't help, I looked through the posts here, but nothing helped, any reccomendations?
How is PowerBI.com going to access an Access DB? I'm guessing the Access file is on your local network, which the
Power BI service doesn't have access to. I suspect the server running PowerBI.com doesn't have the Access drivers installed because they can't access that datasource.
