Hello All,
We are trying to achieve Power BI integration with Splunk. We have Power BI installed on windows machine and we also installed ODBC driver to connect to Splunk.
As part of configuration we added credentials (same with which we connect to our splunk cloud instance) and URL in Power BI Get Data options but we are getting below error:
"Details: "ODBC: ERROR [HY000] [Splunk][SplunkODBC] (40) Error with HTTP API, error code: Couldn't connect to serverERROR [HY000] [Splunk][SplunkODBC] (40) Error with HTTP API, error code: Couldn't connect to server"
I am attaching connection screenshot and error screenshot. Please let me know if we can add any more information.
Please try to help on same as this will ease reporting to great extent 🙂
Probably proxy server (or firewall).
Typically proxy server because the ODBC driver is not proxy aware like your internet browser is.
This is why others mentioned configure the proxy without explanation.
The typical solution is to add an environmental variable that the ODBC driver can see.
I would recommend testing it using the following process:
If it fails, add the https_proxy the same way. If it succeeds, add it the system permanently.

@saurabhtathode Have you installed ODBC drivers on the server?
Drivers needs to be downloaded and place in driver's directory under the Power BI app? My guess.
I am experiencing the same problem. Was there any resolution to this one?
