Connection to PowerBI using Query Service - sslmode

[RenatoZu]

Hi,

I'm trying to connect PowerBI to Query Service. However, I'm running into a problem "Unable to connect". It's says that only secure connections are supported, and that I have to set "sslmode" as "require" in connection settings. Where do I have to set that while connecting to PostgreSQL?

Thanks

Hi @RenatoZu , 

I have just did a test and my connection is working. 

I have followed the following steps: 

Steps to Connect Power BI to Query Service

1. Open Power BI:

   • Launch Power BI Desktop.
   • Select Get Data from the top menu.

2. Select Data Source:

   • In the search bar, type "PostgreSQL".
   • Select PostgreSQL database from the results and click Connect.

3. Enter Server and Database Information:

   • In the PostgreSQL database dialog, enter the server and database values from your Adobe Experience Platform credentials.
   • For the server, use the host value from the Query Service Credentials section and append :80 for production (e.g., made-up.platform-query.adobe.io:80).
   • For the database, you can use "all" or specify a dataset table name (e.g., prod:all).

4. Choose Data Connectivity Mode:

   • You can select either Import or DirectQuery mode:
     • Import: Imports the full dataset into Power BI.
     • DirectQuery: Queries the data source directly without importing data.

5. Authentication:

   • Enter your username (Organization ID) and password (authentication token) from the Query Service credentials page.
   • Click Connect.
   •

Hi @Parvesh_Parmar 

That's not working for me. After trying to connect, I get the error message that is attached when I created this thread. 

Best,
