Call function from connector in Power BI

[vshruti06]

Hello All,

Currently I have a power BI report with a custom connector, which is fetching data from an API. 

In my report I have several functions which are getting data from API and adding or removing columns from the datset. This functions are is restricting the report to get refresh online. Now to overcome this I want to move the fuctions in connector. 

Is it possible to write the functions in connector and call them in report?

Thanks in advance.

What do you mean restricting reports to get refresh online? AFAIK, the custom connector can only be used in Power BI desktop at this moment. In any case, I don't think you can call the functions from the connector in report, just write those functions in report and then call them.
