I'm trying to connect my MS Excel 2013 Pro+ with PostgreSQL DB using Power Query and Npgsql connector.
Everything seems to be fine, until - I'll try to run custom query (eg. select * from table). Then - there's an error message coming up: "The specified cas is not valid". If I'll use the DB structure browser - I'm able to select table or view and hit 'Load' but it's also giving me same error.
Is there something I do wrong, or is there some bug in the connector?
Here's the stacktrace from Excel:
