Hi,
I am using Power BI Desktop and want to set up a report using data from a Salesforce Object.
When selecting: Get Data -> Online Services -> Salesforce Objects the system lets me chose the object (in this case Installed Product), but afterwards the 'Preview is Evaluationg' circle turns and turns until it shows an error: "DataSource.Error: Unable to connect to the remote server Details: https://na2.salesforce.com/services/data/v29.0/sobjects/SVMXC__Installed_Product__c/describe"
When I open the link the following is shown:
The strange thing is that I can work with other objects without error messages, and can work with all reports too.
Any advice would be greatly appreciated.
Hi Katrin,
while working with power BI and getting data from salesforce object I experience the same as you have described.
I also raised another ticket with the same content @Anonymous
Looking at the time and date you have raised the question do you have a solution?
Thank you !

I get this error frequently when I am behind our company's firewall on our internal network. I don't seem to have this problem when on an external network. And I think the reason why querying some objects work fine and others do not has to do with the number of fields in the objects.
Hope this helps.
