SCCM Documentation

Is there any documentation for connecting PowerBI Report Server to SCCM? We want to create some custom patching dashboards.

 

The IT guys asked me for documentation on setting up the connection, but I couldn't find much, aside from what I linked below. 

https://docs.microsoft.com/en-us/mem/configmgr/core/servers/manage/powerbi-report-server#create-powe...

 

Do we just need to connect to the DB like any other application? 

 

Thanks,

@RShackelford : I am not familier wiht SCCM, however, you can connect to it if it has database underneath and if they allow read only connection.  If the database is standard such as SQL server, My Sql etc, you can simply use native PowerBI connector, if not, you can use ODBC connector if you have driver for that.
