connecting Amazon S3
HI
i need to connect amazon s3 data using power BI desktop
i have found the option using ODBC, is there any other alternative method to connect the amazon s3 data without using ODBC Mode
Hi Anonymous ,
Besides using REST API, you can refer the Amazon official document about it firstly:
- Connecting to data sources through the internet
- Connecting to data sources via AWS VPN
- Connecting to data sources via AWS Direct Connect
In addition, you can try to use the third-partty connector to connect to Amazon S3 data source:
Publish Real-Time Amazon S3 Data to PowerBI.com

Another option would be to use amazon s3 REST API
https://docs.aws.amazon.com/AmazonS3/latest/API/Welcome.html
But the best solution would be if you can import the data in Redshift and use inbuilt connector
