Steps

  1. Download the Power BI harvester.
  2. Unzip the archive.
  3. Open the Power BI harvester folder.
  4. The Power BI harvester folder contains two folders, a BAT file that you use to run the harvester and a TXT file with information about the configuration file.
    An empty Power BI configuration file is available in the config folder.

What's next?

You can now prepare the Power BI connection properties in the configuration file and run the Power BI harvester.

Note We highly recommend that you run the Power BI harvester via command line. This enables you to follow the metadata upload and see possible errors that may occur.
