I was able to resolve this issue by doing the steps below:

 

Logged out on the PowerBI Desktop app (Top right corner) then went to C:\Users\<username>\AppData\Local\Microsoft\ then delete the entire folder Power BI Desktop

Once you reopen PBI Desktop you should now see all connectors available in \CertifiedExtensions\ folder

@RajasekharT , Strange I am seeing more connector, then what you are seeing. I also checked there nothing in preview features in options and settings. Also there is no tenant settings.

 

In case you have logged in Desktop. Log out and try

Full Power BI Video 20 Hours YouTube
Microsoft Fabric Series 60+ Videos YouTube
Microsoft Fabric Hindi End to End YouTube

still i'm unable to see it after logout and restart the system.

 

PowerBI Desktop will download a number of connectors (including Databricks) for the Internet. If the machine running PowerBI does not have Internet access, then you will not see the Databricks connector (along with multiple others).

You can copy/paste the connector file from another machine that has Internet connectivity:

C:\Users\<username>\AppData\Local\Microsoft\Power BI Desktop\CertifiedExtensions\Databricks.pqx

Hi @RajasekharT ,

 

As far as I know, Power BI support Azure Databricks.
