    Hi Denis_Slav ,

     

    When working with the PDF connector on datasets in a Premium capacity, the PDF connector does not properly make the connection. To enable the PDF connector to work on a dataset in a Premium capacity, configure that dataset to use a gateway, and confirm the connection to that dataset goes through the gateway.

     

    Please check if it is related to the above limitation.

Thanks for your answer, may I ask where your pdf was stored ? 


Mine is on sharepoint (same tenant, same site, same library than xlsx files or list I already use in my dataflow) and it does not work. 

+ How do we create a Gateway between sharepoint and PBI? Thanks again, 

here is the error message I got :Error: PipelineException: Attempted to read or write protected memory. This is often an indication that other memory is corrupt. . RootActivityId = d71c1488-c011-4b38-afe3-e7f3bf81e6ed.Param1 = PipelineException: Attempted to read or write protected memory. This is often an indication that other memory is corrupt. Request ID: bdf34ac2-30f9-448b-e2e2-faf8cf5cb836.

Best

I store PDFs on OneDrive and connect via SharePoint.Files() command. In the first connection, the service may ask for authorization and to select Gateway. Then you just select the folder or the exact file and transform it. 

 

And your Error Message looks like not the problem with PDF. Try to search relevant to your message topics with that problem.
