Document DB + Power BI

I am unable to connect DocumentDB and July 2017 Power BI.  I am following these directions:

 

https://docs.microsoft.com/en-us/azure/cosmos-db/powerbi-visualize

 

I am getting an error "Unable to Connect" with the detail "the specified database was not found." between steps 7 and 8.

 

I am getting the same error with the example database and one I use regularly.

 

Thoughts?

I can repro the same issue as you. I’ve reported it internally to Power BI Team: CRI 41996625
I’ll post here once I get any update about it.

 

Best Regards,

The workaround is to start with an empty query and enter the formula manually:

= DocumentDB.Contents("https://myserver.documents.azure.com", null, null)
