How to connect PowerBI desktop to Azure MySQL with SSL

I need to set up my connection with PowerBI to Azure Database for MySQL flexible server. I can’t seem to find any reliable documentation to do this.

Initially I’m getting this error when I try to connect to the server.

  1. Get Data > More > Select MySQL Database
  2. Input the Server name and Database name > Hit OK

Error: Connections using insecure transport are prohibited while
–require_secure_transport=ON.

enter image description here

Then I downloaded the SSL certificate from our Azure portal then successfully imported in the certmgr.msc under the Trusted Root Certification Authorities

enter image description here

But the same issue persists. Please take note that in this same machine I was able to connect to that server using phpmyadmin. In DbBeaver as well by simply installing the SSL as a CA Certificate. What can I try next?

    Able to fix my issue by installing the latest mySQL connector and importing a public SSL Certificate.

    my machine previously has a MySQL Connector Net 7.0.2 then I downloaded the latest 8.0.32 from this page: https://dev.mysql.com/downloads/connector/net/

    thanks to this reference: https://learn.microsoft.com/en-us/azure/mysql/flexible-server/connect-with-powerbi-desktop

    when you import the certificate you get asked to install it for current user or local machine. Have you tried importing it on local machine rather than current user. I have it on local machine and able to connect to the Azure database for mysql server. let me know if it works.

    Thanks
