  • Hi Midnight, thanks again! I'll check out that process today; kind of on hold until we can get the CIO to tell us exactly what visualized data he wants to see....at least that will give me some time to look into this; the best part being that it would be automated!

  • HI Midnight - First, thanks again. Using Powershell is certainly an option. I can get exported data now using PGAdmin and the custom queries I've created. I'm still learning how to use and what can be done with Power BI. I do see where I can import Excel Spreadsheets so I may give that whirl today and see what kind of…

  • I really appreciate that and I'll certainly bring up the subject. I've already, on my own, exported the WHD Database (via backup) and pulled that into Postgresql running on my laptop.

CourtesyIT/Pabely - I did check with our Infrastructure Team and they say there weren't any changes made on our Network that would cause the issue. That leaves a change on Microsoft's side but if that were the…
    in Unable to find valid certification path to requested target Comment by straybullet May 2019
  • I wanted to come back and revisit this as I've made significant progress and it was actually fairly easy after a little help from Solar Winds Support and Power BI Support. I am now able to Direct Query the embedded PostgreSQL WHD Database using Power BI Desktop then create and publish Visualized Reports to the Power Bi…
