Hi PowerBI folks,
It seems as if PowerBI does not support “Direct Connection” to a Hana database when an encrypted connection is used from the PBI desktop (and I would expect from the gateway also).
We can connect fine using the "Import mode" but get a message telling us to "Either turn off encryption in the database or switch to Import mode" when we try to connect via Direct Connection.
I have tried Direct Connection using an unencrypted connection to Hana before we turned on encryption - and it worked fine.
Unfortunately all of our connections must be encrypted per our digital security requirements. This means that we cannot use PowerBI Direct Connection modes to a Hana database.
In order to give our users the best user experience and realize the full benefits of using PowerBI, we require Direct Connection capabilities.
Could you please prioritize getting this capability with your product teams – it is very important to us …
Thanks for your consideration and support!
