Only Datasets are exposed via the XMLA endpoint connectors.  Dataflows cannot be accessed directly.  Not sure if it is a good idea to ever try this but feel free to raise it as an idea.

 

Always keep in mind that Power BI is a downstream application.  What you really want to do is point your python to the actual source of the data, further upstream.

Can you help me with how we can use XMLA endpoints ? or any link where I can find info about this ?
