MongoDb view

Hi,

Can Power BI read the view from the MongoDB data source?

 

Regards,

Hi @amitchandak ,
Thanks for the reply. I have tried connecting to MongoDB, but the performance is very slow. Would it improve if I simply import the view from MongoDB?
Therefore, I want to know if I can load views from MongoDB rather than reading tables from it.

@Anonymous , We have used mongodb-connector-odbc-1.4.3-win-64-bit.msi and yes it was slow. Wait for more replies
