Dataverse tables not showing up in Power BI

[nleuck_101]

Hello,

I can't find the Dataverse table that I created in Power BI. I've tried clearing the permissions 3 times and I still don't see the table. Any suggestions.

Hi @nleuck_101 ,

After creating the table, open the Dataverse table properties and click "save" without changing any settings. This action can sometimes help the table appear in Power BI when you refresh the connector panel.

Hope it helps！

Hello @v-xiaoyan-msft 

Tried this and it didn't work. Why in world would Microsoft implement this functionality if it doesn't consistently work. I have nothing but issues with the connecting the Dataverse to Power BI. This is beyond frustrating.

Since the January Power Bi Desktop version update, I can't even find the Dataverse data connector! Not sure if this is an isolated incident or indeed the same problem.

Existing reports with Dataverse connections triggers the error to the right. Blank reports do not even facilitate a Dataverse connection. The shortkey button does nothing whilst the data source menu has the data connector literally missing.

I typed in Dataverse and here is what I have.

I wish it was that easy...

What's your desktop app's version? I'm convinced it's an issue with the latest version.

I have January 2025.
