Set up the Power BI harvester (deprecated)

The Power BI harvester is a standalone console application that runs on a Windows machine. You use it to extract data from the Power BI REST API and XMLA endpoints and send it to the Collibra Data Lineage server in Collibra's cloud environment for analysis.

The metadata harvesting process explains in detail which prerequisites you need to enable the Power BI harvester to collect the Power BI metadata.

Note There are some limitations to the metadata harvesting process. Ensure that you understand these limitations before you start the harvesting process.
