使用 Access 作为数据库刷新 Power BI

Question

My Team is working with Power BI, where we use a Report Server and the Cloud. For one Power Bi file, we connected some Excel Sheets and a Access File. Everything is fine. The upload on every Server is working. Nonetheless, if we try to refresh the Power BI file there is a certain error. If we try to refresh the PowerBI File in the report server the error is:

SessionID : a63570ad-2411-4b53-b9ce-6a969cb00c97
[0] -1055784932 : DataFormat.Error: Unspecified error. Project_Acquisition_Overview_AE-BE_current.accdb. ;Unspecified error. The exception was raised by the IDbCommand interface.
[1] -1055129594 : The current operation was cancelled because another operation in the transaction failed.
[2] -1055784932 : The command has been canceled.. The exception was raised by the IDbCommand interface.

If we try to refresh the PowerBi file via the Cloud the error is following:

Does someone have an idea what could be the problem?

Answer 1

The following on-premise data sources can NOT be used with Power BI Cloud

SAP BW SAP HANA ODBC Access DB / Legacy Excel files (.xls)

This means that Access DB cannot be refreshed in the Power BI Cloud.
