I am currently experiencing issues connecting Azure SQL Managed Instance to Power BI Desktop. Despite adding service tags and enabling the public endpoint, I am still unable to establish a connection.

Please assist in resolving this issue.

    in Power BI Desktop and select Home > Get Data > More…

    A “Get Data” connection window will appear with several connection options. Select “Azure” on the left and under that “Azure SQL database” and click on “Connect”.  A common mistake made is selecting “Azure Table Storage” which is an entirely different storage entity. So, ensure you select “Azure SQL database”.
