You cannot connect directly to data warehouses using Power BI Web (the online version in the browser), make sure to use Power BI Desktop.
In Peliqan, go to Connections, find the Data Warehouse tile and copy/paste your connection details:
Use these settings in Microsoft Power BI to connect:
- Connection type: Postgres (default data warehouse type in Peliqan)
- Server:
db.eu.peliqan.io(for EU instance) - User name & password: copy / paste from the Data Warehouse Connection tile (see above)
- Database name: same as the user name
- SSL: enabled
Step by step
In Power BI, click on “Get Data” and then “More” or “Get data from another source”.
Select PostgreSQL from the list:
Paste the host name from the Peliqan data warehouse, e.g. db.eu.peliqan.io , the database name and click OK:
On the next screen, enter the database name from Peliqan and select “DirectQuery”. Note that the database name is the same as the user name (login). On the next screen, enter the login and password from Peliqan:
When Power BI does not ask for a login and password, go to the Home menu ribbon, click on Transform Data and select “Data source settings” from the drop-down menu. Select the existing datasource and change its credentials, or remove it completely.
