Hello All,
I am very new to Power BI and it would be great if you could help me with one problem.
So here it goes,
Just like Tableau provides the funtionality to build a Web Data Connector for WebApps, what does Power BI offer on a similar scenerio.
I have already developed a Tableau WDC for my webapp but I am looking to build a similar solution in PowerBI so that client can choose between the tools of there choice.
Any help/link/document would be very helpful.
Thanks in advance!

Hi @Anonymous
I am not very familiar with this, but I suggest that you look at the following documentation to create a custom connector for Power Query (https://docs.microsoft.com/en-us/power-query/startingtodevelopcustomconnectors)
This connector should be able to connect to your webapp and load the data in Power Bi.
Regards,
Paul
