Can you try putting square brackets around the table name, it is possible the query is getting confused with the dot
select name from [Person.CountryRegion]

Werner,
when in doubt, I just tried a Test-NetConnection paengine.rcnow.com - port 5555 in powershell.
It work fine.
the truth lies elsewhere.
I can only suggest that you submit a ticket to support, explaining all the settings you've made, including the fact that your paengine.rcnow.com can be accessed from anywhere.
Regards,
Philippe

Hi Werner,
the test I ran was with tm1 hosted on AWS.
My blurred address is the external address of my "local" database server.
So I have :
PA on AWS attacking via https, my server hosting the odbcis client.
If you want to try this out with "local" servers, https://machine:port/api/v1/ should designate your local computer on which you run odbcisclient.
but If you have Local PA which attack Local Rdbms, you coul'd use classic odbc datasource.
Regards,
Philippe

Hi Philippe , I see that your IP/DNS that is blurred out is different than localhost, are there any additional steps to configure the server to that specific IP/DNS?
How would you test if it is working on local server?

Hi All for some context we are trying to connect to a SQL server using ODBC connection in Planning analytics engine (v12).
We have installed and started the IBM Planning Analytics ODBC Data Connector.
We have configured the AdventureWorks2019 SQL database with the correct login credentials in the Datasources part of the config.odbcis.json file.
We are not sure if the Client part will be the login to the PAW environment or would it be the same credentials used to login to the SQL database.
When running the following request (IP and Port changed): IP:Port/api/v1/Datasources
We get an error:
{
"error": {
"code": "278",
"message": "'Datasources' resource can not be resolved on type 'EntityContainer'."
}
}
Are there any other config steps to make the cloud be able to see this such as exposing the port in the firewall config?
