How to run external program from the custom connector
Hi
I am brand new for Power Query. I try to write custom connector. It will have to create a authorization token and insert it to the http header. Token generation is quite complicated operation so I would like to do it in separate console application. Is it possible to execute external program from the custom connector power query?

I'm afraid that is not directly possible (security model and whatnot) . If only one entity will import data you can use a personal gateway to do the authentication, or simply set up your own pass through server.
Is there some part of power query you are unsure how to do a certian type of operation?
Thanks, Nice to know. it saved my time.
