request time out when entering azure sql database

Hello all,

I created a parameter for the server and database to switvh between dev and production. After publishing on power BI service, and entering credentials of prod DB, the request timed out since it took more than 120 mins to load. 

What can I do to reduce the database?

Hi, @CarlaGh 

You can try to change the command timeout in Advanced options of  Data source settings directly.

Please refer to this similar post for more information.

Timeout Refresh errors azure sql sources; refresh time range 15 to 180 min? How to diagnose?
