PowerQuery SDK Extension in Visual Studio
- 1 year ago
Hi bmidhun
Yes, the link provided is for the Power Query SDK for Visual Studio Code. As Microsoft has officially shifted support for Power Query SDK development to Visual Studio Code. The Visual Studio (classic) version of the Power Query SDK is no longer actively maintained and is not available in the current Visual Studio Marketplace for download. All new development of Power Query custom connectors should now be done using the Power Query SDK for Visual Studio Code.To develop custom Power Query connectors, the recommended and supported approach is to use Visual Studio Code along with the Power Query SDK extension.At this time, there is no NuGet package or extension officially provided or supported for Microsoft Visual Studio to develop Power Query connectors.

For detailed guidance on using the SDK and developing Power Query custom connectors, you can refer to the official documentation:

Please ensure that you are using a supported version of Visual Studio (2019 or 2022) and that your environment includes the necessary workloads to support Power Query extensions.
