Does anyone know of any good references for processing BSON in PowerBI? I know of these https://learn.microsoft.com/en-us/powerquery-m/binary-functions built in library functions for binary data but am wondering if there are other resources out there. Context: We will be receiving BSON data back that we will be translating into tables for PowerBI.
Solved! Go to Solution.
HI @Anonymous,
You can use web connector to getting data from correspond API ,then use json function to receive these data with correspond Encode and transform them to table format.
Web.Contents - PowerQuery M | Microsoft Learn
Json.FromValue - PowerQuery M | Microsoft Learn
BTW, if you are working with MongoDB with BSON data format, you can also refer to the following link if helps:
Connect from Microsoft Power BI Desktop - MongoDB
