      I have reviewed it, but I still do not see any ODBC/ADBC bridge actually existing. I have submitted an inquiry to the MS Fabric team to see what else I can find about the Connector creation process for new drivers.

        Hi SQLGuy2,

        Thank you for the update, and great that you have contacted the MS Fabric team directly. Since there isn't much documentation on using native ADBC drivers like libadbc_driver_flightsql.dll in custom connectors, reaching out to them is good move.

        As you mentioned, there doesn’t appear to be an ADBC-to-ODBC bridge available yet, and Microsoft hasn’t provided much public information about native connector development. Hopefully, with more interest from users, they will consider offering official guidance or more details soon.

        If you receive any updates from the Fabric team, please share them here, as it could be helpful for others exploring similar connector setups.

        Best Regards,
        Harshitha.
