.dat file
Hi all, How to deal with .dat file in Power BI ... Thanks, Pratima
Hi Pratima,
In Power BI desktop, The File category provides the following data connections:
- Excel
- Text/CSV
- XML
- JSON
- Folder
- SharePoint Folder
It doesn't support .dat file. As I know, DAT can be a text-based, video-based, an attachment, or some other kind of files. If your .dat file is text-based, I would suggest you convert it to text file, then, connect to this text file in Power BI desktop. But the data imported to Power BI might be unreadable.
