Hello Ehud,
Thank you for replay, but it seems that I need to be more concrete.
So I have read all available documentation but if I use examples from documentation as power BI Odata data source I got following error's :
for example with http :
http://shpalmoctanep.ad.local/odata/v4/shared_spaces/1001/workspaces/5001
I got error :
OData:The request was aborted: The operation has timed out
for example with https :
https://shpalmoctanep.ad.local:8080/odata/v4/shared_spaces/1001/workspaces/5001
I got error :
power bi the underlying connection was closed: an unexpected error occurred on a send.
I have tried to use username and password and client secret and pass from api access.
Regards,
Krešimir

I understand that you get errors when trying to connect Power BI to Octane OData API.
In this case, I suggest that you will submit a ticket to support so that they will be able to provide the appropriate service.

Hi,
Yes I have open the case and resolved the issue.
It seems that problem was on our internal network (firewalls) but nevertheless there are some changes :
You should not use https but http link ( in documentation there is only https mentioned ).
And instead of server name you should use ip address ( even do client is able to resolve host name to ip ) strange but this is how this works.
But now when this works one more important question :
How to get information from power bi in which phase ic which defect ?
I do not see any connection field between those two tables ?

Krešimir
