Power BI

Is there an ETA on the Power BI connector ?

    Edit: it should be available or will be available very shortly. It requires OneStream 8.2. You might want to discuss licensing requirements with your Customer Success Manager.

    Does Power BI Connector is part of the Latest Version 8 ?

  • We had a call with our Rep to discuss and based on that call it requires v8, but does not come with it.  It comes at a very high cost in my opinion.

    Going to be testing it in a few days to determine what functionality it gives over standard Rest API connector to determine if it's worth it.  There are already ways to accomplish this without a built in connector.

      Do you have any information on creating the Rest API connector?

       

  • Will the Power BI connector be available for On-Prem implementations on the V8.2?

      We are going to just do data management extracts to load to PowerBI.  The OneStream connector still has to refresh from what we were told, so to save the connector cost we are just doing extracts.  Not sure what we are missing out on, but it doesn't seem like anything.
