Hi All,
Is it possible to query my Dataflow using another tool ?
regards
Hi,
According to your description, i am confused with your requirement.
Do you want to connect to dataflow on Power BI Desktop by using another tool, or write queries on Power BI Service?
Best Regards,
Giotto Zhi
Hi,
I mean, create a dataflow (write a query) on the service, and then you for example Tableau to connect at this source.
hope it's clear
I don't believe so. Power BI dataflows can only be consumed by other Power BI dataflows and Power BI Desktop.
If you're using ADLSGen2, there may be a way to have another tool connect to the CDM folder in data lake.
