How to connect to a RDF file?

‎06-02-2018 09:10 AM

Hello everyone,

 

Can anyone shed some light regarding what an 'rdf' file is, and whether there is a way to import data from this type of file into PBI?

 

Thanks,

 

Paul.

@PaulDBrown,

There is no built-in connector for RDF in Power BI Desktop. You can consider to convert RDF file to Excel file using online tool, then connect to the Excel file in Power BI Desktop.
