PowerBI connecting with Oracle-DB: ORA-12154

I am trying to connect PowerBI with Oracle-DB with no success.




  • First: when I open PowerBI and try to connect the Oracle Database on Get Data Icon, I get the following error:


enter image description here




  • Second: I click ok and try to set the connection mannualy:


enter image description here



But in the end I get the ORA-12145: TNS:could not resolve the connect identifier specified error:



enter image description here



I don't know what's happening since my Oracle version is the most recent one (Oracle Database 12c Enterprise Edition Release 12.1.0.2.0 - 64bit Production):



enter image description here



Also, my PowerBI Desktop version is Version: 2.63.3272.40262 64-bit (October 2018)



I've already set up the tsnames.ora and listener.ora files, but nothing helped.



Do you have an idea how to figure that out?

    Can you tnsping the database? Can you connect using SQLPlus?

  • Yes. the tnsping works to connect, but I don't know why PowerBI does not connect.

"Power BI" covers a lot of different components. I presume/guess you mean Power BI Desktop?



Your Oracle Database version is not that relevant. The important piece you are probably missing is the drivers, in this case the Oracle Data Access Client (ODAC) drivers. Here's the page in the manual you should read:
