Hello,

I am trying to connect RENXT to Power BI Desktop. I have followed this tutorial, but I do not see the connection in the list to connect to from Power BI Desktop.
I am missing something but I do not know what. I have changed the setting to allow uncertified connections.

Thanks for your help

Karen

    can you screenshot where you placed the mez file

    also will need to see if you zipped correctly, so screenshot the mez file of the files zipped within it (if you do not have a “zip” program" like 7z, you will need to rename the extension back to .zip in order to open it in explorer.

    your file is not a mez file, it is a zip file with .mez as part of your file name only.

    See this section of the post:
