Import data from FBL file

Hi All,
I started work with PowerBI and I have had a first problem.
I want to load data from FBL file, but I don't know it is possible. How to do this? Do you have any advice?

Regards,

Bartek

    Hi, Anonymous 

    Currently, we can't import data from FDB file directly. You can try to convert FDB to PDF and then get data from the PDF. And if the FDB data file can be import to some databases, you can connect to these databases in Power BI Desktop.
