How to connect to github repository for organization (enterprise standard github license)

Hi Guys,

currently I am using github custom connector with oath2 to connect to raw csv file on github repo. 
But there is no way do this natively with power bi? 

How to get to files within repository? 

Best,
Jacek

From your description, I guess you are following this approach and created a sort of custom M extension to connect to github 

https://learn.microsoft.com/en-us/power-query/samples/github/readme

 

Have you tried using the Web connector and with the authentication mode as Personal access token, if not then please go through this

Thankyou, @tharunkumarRTK, for your response.

Hi @jaryszek,

We appreciate your inquiry via the Microsoft Fabric Community Forum.

As per my understanding, Power BI does not provide a native connector specifically designed for integration with GitHub repositories, including GitHub Enterprise. However, you can securely access raw files such as CSVs from a GitHub repository by using the Web connector along with a Personal Access Token (PAT) for authentication.

Additionally, please refer to the following community thread for further information:
