Salesforce Reports App not Showing
- 8 years ago
Hi Anonymous
I make a test on my site with a pro account. Please check which way you get to the App source page.
Get Data->Service Content Packs
Get Data->Services(choose apps from online services)

Thank you for this. I tried choosing Service Content Packs and I do see salesforce reports, so I was selecting the wrong option.
When I select services I only see the Sales Manager and Sales Rep options, not the first one that shows in your answer. Is there a way through Power BI pro to get tables from Salesforce (I was able to do it using Power BI desktop)? Or does it only allow reports to be pulled?
Thanks again!

Hi, as a workaround, maybe you can try to test your connection with a 3rd party connector, which pulls data directly from the SF objects API. I've tried windsor.ai, supermetrics and funnel.io. I stayed with windsor because it is much cheaper so just to let you know other options. In case you wonder, to make the connection first search for the Salesforce connector in the data sources list:
After that, just grant access to your Salesforce account using your credentials, then on preview and destination page you will see a preview of your Salesforce fields:
There just select the fields you need. It is also compatible with custom fields and custom objects, so you'll be able to export them through windsor. Finally, just select PBI as your data destination and finally just copy and paste the url on PBI --> Get Data --> Web --> Paste the url.
