Real time analytics with csv file

webportal — Tue, 07 Nov 2023 14:18:02 GMT

Hello,

My app is generating continuous data to a CSV file, accessible through a URL.

I need to get this data into a streaming dataset, close to real time as possible, to build a Power BI dashboard.

What's the best way to get this data into the dataset?

I'm trying to build it using Fabric Real-Time analytics, but I'm not sure, which data source to use.

Can anyone help?

Thanks!

Hi @webportal,

I think you can deploy a web service or local application to extract data from the remote datasource and send request to power bi service side with API mode:

Thanks, I've solved the problem by developing a web app in Python that extracts the data and sends it to a Power BI streaming dataset.
