Re: [EXTERNAL] Re: Case 120011521001709 - Issues connecting to postgreSQL server

The server only allows SSH tunneling. I’m able to establish the SSH tunnel
with the command: ssh jupyter
but how do I tell psqlODBC to connect to that port?
I used pgAdmin 4 and was able to connect to the database, so I feel like
I’m missing something basic.

I’m ultimately trying to import data from the server over SSH into
Microsoft’s Power BI app using its native postgresql or odbc plugin.
