Custom Connector - protect source code

Tuney8 — Tue, 20 Sep 2022 11:52:20 GMT

I've written a custom connector and I want to send this out to some users to test.

Is there a way I can protect the source code for this?

Cheers

Chris

Thanks for the suggestion.

When you build the mez, all it's doing is packaging the files up.

If you change the .mez extension to a .zip you can open it up and see the source.

I'm guessing even if I sign the file it will just be signed with a hash of the contents.

I don't even think there is a way to obfuscate the code with M either.

I'm wondering if my option is to get it certified by Microsoft and get put into Power BI by default.
