Cannot load model DirectQuery error: DirectQuery may not be used with this data source

Hi guys.

 

I'm trying to get the data through CData Airtable to Power BI. Other tables are working and loading except this one
Whenever I transform the data this error shows

 

We couldn't connect to your DirectQuery data source or internal model. Double-check that your server and database names are correct and that you have permission to access them.

 

DirectQuery error: DirectQuery may not be used with this data source - please consider moving to a supported data source or upgrading the SQL Server data source to the latest available version

We tried not using an SQL statement but the same error. 

Thank you in advance 🙂

@SeerData - You will probably need to talk to CData about that issue. Which of the scenarios listed are you trying to use regarding AirTable and Power BI?

@SeerData , You are using a custom connector. Please connect with the developer for the error.
