Getting Data from Access 97

Hello,

I’m writing in reference to a project I’m currently working on that revolves around creating dashboards in

Power BI which implies that I would have to create a connection between our database ( in format Access

97) and Power BI Online. However, the operation of data importation generates a compatibility error.

Considering the fact that these databases are used in real time by an entry software, it wouldn’t be practical

to change the database and work with another format.

Thus, I would like to know if there’s a possible outcome where I can operate with my database in Power

BI services.
