Power BI Service Refresh Fails Unknown Function AutodeskDataExchange Contents
Hi Om_Bhartiya ,
Unfortunately, there is no possibility that one can legally share a .mez connector file unless it’s an officially released or open-source connector.
The supported way is to install the official Autodesk connector locally, set up an On-premises Data Gateway (Standard mode) with the .mez in the Custom Connectors folder, enable custom connectors, and map your dataset to the gateway.
Please go through the below documentation for your reference:

Thank you.
Hi Om_Bhartiya ,
You are right - Power BI Service can’t refresh datasets using AutodeskDataExchange.Contents directly, as it’s a custom (non-certified) connector. The only supported method is via an On-premises Data Gateway (Standard mode) with the Autodesk .mez file installed and custom connectors enabled. Make sure the gateway is mapped to your dataset and the “Allow user’s custom connectors” option is turned on. Cloud-only refresh isn’t supported yet - manual or gateway refresh are the current options.
Thank you.
i try that also but its not work if you have any custom .mez connector file could you share with me
