Hello Power BI Community,
I am trying to create a powerbi custom connector using VS2019 that would list the storage contents of an Azure Data Lake (or Azure Storage Blob). A key is required to access the data lake but how does one specify the authentication key required in M? I don't see any options to specify the key in the optional parameters of AzureStorage.DataLake. Any help would be greatly appreciated. Thanks.
datalake_ext = (url as text) => let source = AzureStorage.DataLake(url) //or AzureStorage.Blobs(url) for Blob Storage //authenticate to datalake using key? in source;
Hi @Anonymous
Power BI support you to connect to Azure Data Lake by Azure Data Lake connector.
For reference: Analyze data in Azure Data Lake Storage Gen2 by using Power BI
Custom Connector supports OAuth authentication.
