Real time data using Gateway + ODBC + Firebird Database
Hi brunozanoelo
Unfortunately, not all data sources support real time.
You can reference this to see if it is supported: Power BI data sources - Power BI | Microsoft Learn
What I would suggest doing is to find a way to push the data from your Firebird database to the power of BI service streaming API.
GilbertQ Thank you. I´ve build an service to update the dataset 5 - 5 minutes and worked perfectly. Best Regards,
Hi Bruno
I´m having problems to connect to an external Firebird database. Can you please share the solution you used to build this 5 minutes update service?
Kind regards
Cleber
Hi brunozanoelo , are you able to share the design of your solution (which service did you use to refresh at 5min interval)?
I am trying to solve a similar problem of displaying near-real-time data out of our firebird database (production statistics on the shop floor used for productivity tracking)
