how to connect on premiss database?
Hi,
I would like to use power bi service and on premiss mysql database.
Shoud I use power bi gateway?
And should I use scheduled update to update latest database record?
Hi Anonymous,
Based on my research, if you want to connect MySQL data base and set sechdule refresh, you need to get data in the Power BI Desktop firstly, then configure the gateway for MySQL and set the sechdule refresh. You could refer to below link:
