Do you have the power bi gateway setup?  If you google "power bi gateway sql server" there are several docs on how to get everything all setup.

Hi @Anonymous

 

Have you tried to input the full dsn of this server (example: servername.domain.com) ?

 

Also, can you either ping this server or connect it using another program ?
