Connect to OrientDB

[Anonymous]

Hi Community.

I understand that Microsoft has this Cosmos DB that has a graph feature, but as it is not quite as good as OrientDB, IMHO (types missing for me, etc...), I'd really like to connect PowerBI to OrientDB.

There is no connector. Has anyone tried to do it, or at least, has anyone any feedback on this?

Thanks!

@Anonymous,

Based on my research, OrientDB provides RESTful API to access its data. You can use web connector in Power BI Desktop to connect to OrientDB RESTful API to get required tables. For more details, please review the following blog and similar thread.

Hi @v-yuezhe-msft (Lydia).

Indeed, yesterday I spent the day searching and I found the same solution as you.

I haven't tried it yet though.

I will try it these days and post here the result, then, if you agree, we could close this thread.

Thanks for being so reactive.
