How to create custom connector options window like Essbase

[SVUser123]

I am new to Power BI and trying to build a custom connector for one of my projects. Can someone please help me on how to create a connection panel like Essbase below.  Thanks in advance.

PS: I did take a look into the HelloWorld project but that takes just a single input and i am not able to figure out how to give options like radio buttons expand/collapse button like Advanced Options below. 

Please help

Hello, just checking if in the 2 years since the last update to this thread anything changed.

Is an "advanced options" section in the data source config still unavailable to custom connectors?

Thank you and have a nice day,

Stefano

I am actually looking to develop the UI similar to Essbase connector, the link provided just gives the information on how to use it. Please help me with any developer guide to create such custom connectors

Hi @SVUser123 

It seems that thired party custom connector won't show an option window like default connector. You need to add the parameter, url or id in code when you create the custom connector.

Here is a offical blog about how to ceate a custom connector.
