Designing a dashboard using parquet file from local file system/Network Server. Fail to chose valid source type.
Is it possible to create Dashbord/Report from parquet file from local filesyetem?
Is there any otherway to do it?
You can accomplish this using the file URI scheme. Simply use
file:///C:/Users/<the_rest_of_the_path>
when prompted for a URL
Hey @ArunKumarPB ,
at the current moment reading Parquet files is only supported by dataflows, if you are not familliar with Power BI dataflows, I recommend reading the blog posts by Matthew Roche (https://ssbipolar.com/2018/10/19/dataflows-in-power-bi-overview-part-1/#:~:text=Dataflows%20are%20a%...😞
You can create custom entities (a table) from within the Power BI Service:
Then you can use Power BI dataflows as a data source in Power BI Desktop:
Be aware that you also have to configure an on-premises gateway that enables the connectivity from the dataflow (Power BI Service) to your Parquet file.
Hopefully, this provides some ideas on how to tackle your challenge.
Regards,
Tom
