complex datatypes compactablity

[pradeepnadaraj]

Kindly guide me on how to plot spark complex datatype fields in powerBI (Datatypes such as Map(key/value), array, set etc). 

will there be any performance degradation on complex datatype usage, compared to normal datatype fields(like unnesting and reporting)?

Hello PowerBI team, 

Can PowerBI read or parse a complex data type?
