Power Bi Integration with Custom Salesforce Objects. ( Not Reports)
rohampourmehr,
According to my knowledge, it is not possible to integrate Power BI with custom salesforce objects using SOQL.In your scenario, since you don’t want to connect to Salesforce report content pack which includes custom objects and fields in Power BI Service, you can create your own reports using Power BI Desktop. It's possible to connect to all Salesforce Objects, including custom objects and fields in this tool. Once imported, you can create your own reports and upload them to a Power BI Service.

The salesforce object connector in Power BI Desktop doesn't have 2000 rows limit. Using the connector in Power BI Desktop, you would need to build reports by yourself, after that, you can publish the report to Power BI Service and set schedule refresh for your dataset.

Thank you for your all your help thus far.
Will i be able to connect to Custom Objects in Salesforce?
I was under the impression that we can only connect to Standards Objects in Salesforce and the only way to access data from the Cusotm Objects is to connect to Salesforce Reports which have the 2000 rows limit.
Thank you,

Based on Admin's comment in this idea, you are able to use the salesforce object connector in Power BI Deskop to connect to all salesforce objects including custom objects.
