HI There,

        I recently did a similar integration on our cloud based Infor EAM , in my case I used Azure cloud , using  MS power automate, I created a flow that can  detach the email attachments and past those attachments in a Azure cloud folder , from where these datached data files can be picked by PowerBI for displaying the data in Dashboard,  Infor EAM uses cognos reporting engine 

where reports can be scheduled to run and can be emailed to any email address specified in the setup, using a unique email address 

only for reporting purpose you can perform the above process.

Regards,

Vikas.

Hi @vikas_k 

I have a similar use case now to use PowerAutomate to connect to Infor. Would you be kind to explain more on how you used Power Automate and  were able to see the outcome.

Hi @nandukrishnavs, 

thanks, but what I am looking is not available in existing power BI data sources.

I want to connect Power BI with Infor Distribution SX.e system data and generate reports.
