In the MySQL Database window, click the Advanced Options link.
Check the box labeled Connect via SSH.
Enter the SSH server details:

If you are using an SSH key pair, provide the path to your private key file.

Power BI establishes an SSH tunnel with the SSH server and then uses the tunnel to connect to the MySQL database.
If the connection is successful, you will be able to preview the data in the MySQL database.
Load Data: After previewing the data and verifying the connection, click Load to import the data into Power BI.
