power bi december 2021 version support

[Anonymous]

I am getting an sslstream error while connecting to dataflow from power bi desktop when using April 2022 version, no such issue when using december 2021 version

Question: How long going forward microsoft provides the support for any power bi desktop version ? I am interested in december 2021, like 1 year ? 2 years ?

Hi @Anonymous ,

Power BI Desktop is updated and released on a monthly basis, incorporating customer feedback and new features. Only the most recent version of Power BI Desktop is supported; customers who contact support for Power BI Desktop will be asked to upgrade to the most recent version. You can get the most recent version of Power BI Desktop from the Windows Store, or as a single executable containing all supported languages that you download and install on your computer.

For December 2021 version support, you may check this document.

Best Regards,

@Anonymous , Power bi releases a Desktop version almost once a month. The official archive does not have more than 6-month-old versions. 1-2 years is not a good idea.
