In this short video I am demonstrating how to connect Microsoft Power BI to MySQL Database and Pull Data to display in your report. Microsoft Power BI is a very useful tool that provides business analytics service with interactive visualizations and intelligence capabilities for end users to create their own reports and dashboards.

Full video series on Power BI and Oracle:

To connect to the MySQL database you need the information below:

-DNS or IP address of the DB Server
-The port at which the database is listening for the connection requests (default 3306)
-Name of the database which is the Schema that has your data tables
-Database credentials that is the User Name and the Password

Supply the Server connection in below format:

IP_Address:Port

For Example:
192.168.1.100:1234

You may discard the port number after the colon if it is the default port 3306
