Self signed custom connector not appearing

Hi everyone!

One more time asking for some advice! I have a custom connector, so to make it appear without downgrading the security settings I self-signed the .pqx file and then adding it's thumbprint to the Registry Editor, but my connector is not showing on Power BI 😞

 

Did anyone have an idea of what could be the problem?

 

Thanks in advance 🙂

Hi @paocohe ,

Please check:
1. Verify the Custom Connector File Location: Ensure that your .pqx file is placed in the correct folder.
2. Check the Security Settings in Power BI Desktop: Even though you've self-signed the connector, it's important to ensure that the security settings within Power BI Desktop are correctly configured to allow the loading of the custom connector.
