How to register metadata of power bi in Azure Data catalog

Question

Hi,

My company is thinking about to subscribe the Azure Data catalog to manage the metadata of our different database and power bi reports.
I lunched the registration tool and want to connect to the power bi server, but I dont see power bi connection. My question is, how can we connect to power bi in registration tool, or it dosent have that feature. (I want to register all the calculation columns, measures, columns, tables... in the power bi to data catalog)

Thanks,
Rick

Hi @Rick jiang ,

Thanks for reaching out. Please refer to below MS doc to explore about the list of supported data sources in Azure Data Catalog. Looks like power BI is not a part of this list, hence not supported.
