PowerBI Android App - Connect to report server hosted on Azure VM

Hello,

 

I am trying to connect report server hosted on azure VM from PowerBI android app.

I am getting "server address invalid" error.

 

Tried with the settings like basic authentication type in rsconfig & Inbound Firewall rules inside VM.

 

What does Server_address implies in the server details - is that the azuredomain.com ?

What is connection string format for report server on azure  VM ?

 

Any hints please 🙂

Hi,

 

A valid SSRS 2016 server name is something like this http://myserver.cloudapp.net/reports if you are deploying your server to an Azure VM.

 

All the best,

Yitzhak

Hi Yitzhak,

 

Thanks for replying.

 

myserver what it should be

 

IPaddress
DNS name       - Xyz.northeurope.cloudapp.azure.com
Virtual Machine -
Virtual Network -

or

directoryname which is like Xyz.onmicrosoft.com

 

Reports are hosted on Azure VM - http://localhost/Reports

Thanks again for your quick response.

 

No luck. Still same error 😞

Are you able to access the portal from a browser?

Note that for azure VM you also need to configure an endpoint (https://azure.microsoft.com/en-us/documentation/articles/virtual-machines-windows-classic-setup-endp...).

Also make sure your firewall configuration is for public profile (by default you only see the domain profile firewall configuration)
