Hi @Anonymous,

Do you refer to custom connector? If it is, it's driver to shown how you connect to data within Power BI. Generally, we get data from supported source data derictly. While, as a developer, he can create their own data connectors that can be easily plugged into Power BI. Data Connectors allow you to create new data sources, or customize and extend an existing source. More details, please review the following articles.
