Invalid Object name error
I am trying to connect to a view called LINPRM that is pulling from different tables through the SQL Server Database connection. The database I am connecting to is a replication our main database so when our software is getting updates they have to turn off the replication. They did an update and now I am getting this error. My IT guy has rebuilt the replication from scratch twice and we keep getting no results. Let me know if anyone has a solution to solve this. Thanks!

Hi all,
I have setup a quiz in SharePoint with some calculated columns to work out the scores. I would like to create a Power BI dashboard that the user can view their results on.
I have setup a Flow which adds all of the SharePoint entries to a dashbaord but what I need is for only the most recent Items results to show for the user to see.
Is this achievable and if so, how can I do this?
Thanks all!

HowTo: import data from devops (VSTS) git repo
If you ever wanted to pull items from your Devops (VSTS) repo here is how:
// Branch
"master" meta [IsParameterQuery=true, Type="Any", IsParameterQueryRequired=true]
// MytableFromGit
let
Source = VSTS.AccountContents("https://dev.azure.com/{organization}/{project}/_apis/git/repositories/{repo}/items?path={path}&version=" & Branch & "&download=true&api-version=5.0")
in
SourceReplace the following with your values:
{organization}
{project}
{repo}
{path}
You can edit the Branch parameter to a different branch for testing
After you load the query, you will need to "Open As" into csv/json/xml

I use a software called RemSoft that produces a file with extension rsps.
I can open that file with Excel using an addon and I want to know if there is a chance to open it directly with Power BI so I don´t need that manual step.

POWER QUERY error when importing txt with quotes in the fields
Hi,
I’m having a serious problem importing data from a .txt using power query that I couldn’t solve by myself.
I’m loading data using fixed width then I’ll use some other step in power bi to transform and manipulate the data to import.
I don’t have any control of the source file. It can happen that in a field I get a double quote mark, but since I’m using a fixed with schema to import, I’m expecting this is not a problem… but, actually, it is. As you can see in the images below, I have created a small file to reproduce the error I get
Source file:
Result:
QUERY in Advanced properties:
In the import
I noticed that in the import form even if I select “ignore quote line breaks” when I close and reopen the field is again empty, but anyway it doesn’t change the result.
I’m going to surrender after many trials.
Before using a workaround, I’m asking if some good fellow can help me.
Thank you

Google Big Query and Power BI
I read that the Google Big Query Connector for Power BI is not working properly and I should use the ODBCdriver from Simba Technologies to connect. Has anyone got experience developing Power BI reports from Google Big Query, are there more cons or tips how to work with Big Query together with Power BI? Please advise. Thank you.

Im suddenly getting this issue with my on-premise gateway.
I tried upgrading to the latest version with no luck.

Any suggestions?

Connect to mySQL DB without local gateway
I'd like to connect to a mySQL DB without using a local gateway.
The DB is currently on an AWS EC2 server, so it is possible to connect to that without a local gateway?
If not, I'd be willing to move the DB to Azure, however only as a mySQL DB, not MS SQL Server. So then, can I connect to a mySQL DB on Azure without a local gateway?

Power App visual data entry to SQL doesn't work with SSAS live connection
It pulls in the correct data from the Power BI filters, but it doesn't auto fill the Power App Edit Form.
When I use SQL tables based data model, all works perfectly fine. It is all based on a very simple table, with
2 columns: ItemID and Amount. When I switch to SSAS Multidimensional Live Connection, values come in correctly, but auto fill gives an error.

Netsmart Avatar Intersystems ODBC
I have a charity that I am working with and they are using Netsmart Avatar. They are currently using Crystal Reports and are connecting to the system using and Intersystems ODBC driver. The driver is set to "password", no user name is specified and it is pointing at an IP address. I can get the ODBC connection to display in Power BI by using Get Data | ODBC but I am running into issues with the authentication piece of it. If I put in just a password it says "A user name wasn't specified" in Power BI but if I try to put in a user name and password I get some kind of error back from the ODBC connector saying that something was tried that was unsupported by the database.
It looks like Intersystems has a Beta connector for Intersystems IRIS but that doesn't seem to be the same thing that I need here. Any suggestions out there? I tried using Default or Custom but not sure what syntax I should be using, perhaps "Password=xxxx"?? Any assistance is appreciated.

Does anyone have an idea about how to solve this error?

Relay PowerBI Service and onprem gateway to work with data from outside PBI Desktop
Hi All,
Is it possible to do data transformation, create measures etc by using onprem gateway to Power BI Service?
It looks like I can only do basic report editing at the online surface, but cannot do the above like in the Desktop version.
I need to figure out how the customer can give me access to his data "real time" without exposing it to the public internet, or using VPN. Gateway looks promising, but only for refresh, it looks like. Or do you know if it is possible to transfer the data with it to the Service and then somehow work with it from an external, remote Desktop? Thanks!

Using Scheduled Refresh with Common Data Service Connector
We have used the Common Data Service Connector to build some reports from Dynamics 365, and we are curious if we publish those reports if we will be able to use the online refresh / scheduled refresh? We know the Connector is in preview / beta and is not recommended for production use, does that mean there is no way to refresh the data online? Any advice or suggestions of alternative ways to connect to Dynamic 365 data is greatly appreciated, thank you!
P.S. I essentially made this same post a few minutes ago, but it appears it was lost when I registered my Username (as far as I can see anyway). My apologies if this is posted twice!
