Microsoft Access as a Data Source

I have a client with a number of Microsoft Access databases.  I've uploaded them to the Lakehouse but cannot use them as data sources in the "Get Data" command. 

 

If I use a Pipeline, Microsoft Access is not a possible data source.  If I use "Dataflow Gen2" to load the data, I get a "DataSource.NotFound: Microsoft Access: The 'Microsoft.ACE.OLEDB.12.0' provider is not registered on the local machine." error--which is an error on the Microsoft servers.  

 

Any other thoughts on how I can load the Microsoft Access database so the tables can be used in the SQL Endpoint?

 

Thanks!
