What is the minimum votes required to register a connector for certification

[Tofek]

The certification registration form says not to register unless the thread has significant user engagement. We have built a custom connector and we want to register that connector for public use. Can someone please let me know the if there is any minimum votes limit to register a connector for certification and what will be duration it takes to complete the whole process.

Hi @rubayatyasmin @DallasBaba   shared documentation link is applicable to power bi custom connector  or there is separate process for certification of power bi custom connector

[DallasBaba]

@Tofek There is no minimum vote limit is required to submit a custom connector for certification. 

However, the certification registration form states that the thread should have significant user engagement before registering.

The certification process involves submitting the connector to Microsoft for review and approval. The entire process can take up to 1-2 weeks. 

Please note that the certification process is detailed in the Microsoft Learn documentation 13.

You can also use the Activity Control experience on the right to communicate with your Microsoft contact.

Reference the following articles:

Accept the answer as a solution if it works.

Thanks

Accoroding to MS learn there is no minimum voting requirements to apply for certification. From MS Learn: You don't need to have finished development on your custom connector to apply for certification.
