You may have to use npgsql then use powerbi connector to achieve dq mode.

Thank you. I have already looked at those sources and cannot find any reference to direct query. I am hesitant to switch to npgsql unless it will guarantee that I can then do direct query.

None of these links work. They highlight issues and show the ODBC solution, which doesn't support direct query) as well as one hosted on AWS. On the microsoft documentation it says postgresql itself (standard connector) can be done in direct query mode. Is this not possible in the service?
