Hi,
I try to leverage a SSRS report as a data source to Power BI via the Data Feed / OData functionality. So I open the report, export it as a Data Feed, take the URL from the feed and try to use it as OData source in Power BI. I use Windows authentication. However I receive an error like:
Details: "Microsoft.Mashup.Engine1.Library.Resources.HttpResource: Request failed:
OData Version: 3 and 4, Error: The remote server returned an error: (500) Internal Server Error. (Server Error)
OData Version: 4, Error: The remote server returned an error: (500) Internal Server Error. (Server Error)
OData Version: 3, Error: The remote server returned an error: (500) Internal Server Error. (Server Error)"
Any idea? It's SQL 2016 (13.0.2149.0) with the newest build of Power BI (January 2018)
Thanks...

@TePe,
How do you determine the Data Feed URL of your SSRS report? Based on my test and according to this article, I can connect to SSRS report in Power BI Desktop using Web entry and enter the following URL. Please check if Excel format works in your scenario.
http://myrshost/ReportServer?/myreport&rs:Format=Excel
Additionally, the new SSRS 2017 API is OData compliant, which means that you can use OData feed entry in Power BI Desktop to connect to SSRS. For more details, please review this blog.

Lydia
