Hybrid Data Pipeline provides a custom connector for Microsoft Power BI that allows you to access Hybrid Data Pipeline OData resources directly from Power BI Desktop. The connector may also be used to connect to your Hybrid Data Pipeline server through the Microsoft On-Premises Data Gateway and publish reports to Power BI Service (cloud). The connector includes four separate functions, each supporting a different authentication method:

  • HDP OData (Basic) (Custom) — username and password authentication
  • HDP OData (OAuth 2.0) (Custom) — OAuth 2.0 client credentials flow
  • HDP OData (OIDC — Confidential) (Custom) — OIDC confidential flow with client secret
  • HDP OData (OIDC — Public) (Custom) — OIDC public flow using PKCE (no client secret)
Important: Version 1.0.0 of the connector exposed a single function with an authentication method dropdown. Version 2.0.0 uses four separate named functions, and Power BI does not automatically migrate existing report connections. Therefore, existing data source connections in any reports that used version 1.0.0 will need to be updated. See Migrating existing reports from version 1.0.0 to version 2.0.0 for details.
