According to documentation the connector is in beta as of May 2024. Is there an estimated date on when the Power BI desktop and Power BI service connectors will be available as an official Microsoft Power BI extension?
Hi,
I am not working for Piwik, but I am also working on a Power BI report that gets data from Piwik Pro.
I tried to use the connector, but I ended up working with the REST API, which is more flexible (ability to filter the query based on other fields than the date, use transformations such as to_path or to_domain). Also, you don’t require to open any ports from the gateway, since the connection is made from Power BI Service.
Only thing I am trying to solve is the 100000 rows limit per API call. I have a workaround in mind (looping on a table of date with one query per day) : I’m creating a post about that.
Unfortunately that Power BI connector has been in beta for years now! 
Also, now that Microsoft has released Dataflow Gen2, whatever was working before will probably need to be significantly updated before it can be released.
One can only hope that now that they released a native connector to Looker Studio, they will have some development resources to actively work on the Power BI connector, but I don’t believe in Santa anymore.

Hi Nicolas, joao!
As for officially releasing the connector, it doesn’t seem possible at the moment. Our submission was rejected about 2 months ago due to insufficient votes on the ideas portal (Microsoft expects hundreds of votes).
Apart from voting on the Ideas portal, you can also contact your Microsoft account representative (if you have one) and let them know that you’d like to see the connector certified.
