Hi @Raj 

How do you login to the server? Which kind of credentials?

i use Input Data -> Setup connection -> Data Sources -> Quick connect ->
Host = server ip

Auth:
windows or sql directly 

if sql directly then enter username and password for sql user.

And test - and it should work. 

if not, what error do you geT?

Hi @Raj 

 

I suggest you to take a look at some videos about it, it will be easier to understand and repeat what they did.
