I'm quite new to powerbi and i would to create a connection to my azure file share but I cannot find It on powerbi Desktop.
Do you know if MS provides a dedicated connector? And if not, what are the alternatives?

Hi FFernandez1 ,
There is no built-in connector for Azure file Share in Power BI Desktop, to workaround this issue, you can mount Azure File share can in Windows and Windows Server, then access drive of Windows/Windows Server in Power BI Desktop.

This "Solution" Does not work if you want to publish the report. I would expect this would be available in PowerBI
