Hi guys,
how do i set up a .pbids file which has a container in an Azure Data Lake Storage Gen 2 as data source?
My current file looks like this:
{
"version": "0.1",
"connections": [
{
"details": {
"protocol": "webhdfs",
"address": {
"url": "https://mystorageaccount.dfs.core.windows.net/"
}
}
}
]
}But when i try to open the file with Power BI Desktop i get:
Details: "HDFS failed to get contents from 'https://mystorageaccount.dfs.core.windows.net/'. Status code: 409, description: 'Gen1 API are currently disabled.'."Thanks for your help!
