Hi @mabr I think you would have to certify the connector through Microsoft to remove the "(custom)" label. Once it meets certification requirements, the label will no longer appear. As Power BI appends it automatically to differentiate it from certified or official connectors .So i think you would have to certify that
Please Check these documentation for further clarification

Thanks for suggestion @Akash_Varuna, but certification is not possible for us, because our datasource is no public product.

Hi @mabr,

Unfortunately, this approach does not meet the necessary prerequisites, and the custom tag cannot be removed. Additionally, according to the documentation

I recommend keeping an eye out for future feature releases that may introduce a solution to this challenge.
