LEAP Power BI Connector frequently asked questions
-
A Power BI Connector is a software component that enables Power BI to connect to and retrieve data from an external source.
-
Installation steps may vary, but it involves downloading and installing the connector from the Power BI marketplace or Microsoft store.
-
Power BI Connectors support a wide range of data sources, including databases (SQL Server, MySQL, Oracle), cloud services (Azure, AWS), Excel files, SharePoint and more.
-
The refresh frequency depends on the Power BI service plan and the specific data source. It can range from daily to more frequent intervals for real-time data.
LEAP data is synchronised into the Power BI platform. LEAP data is updated every 4 hours.
Power BI relies on the LEAP Reporting API endpoints for its data and the majority of these endpoints have four (4) hour caching windows eg. if 2 users working for the same law firm are reporting in Power BI:
• User 1 loads data into Power BI, and then 3 hours later.
• User 2 loads the same type of data into Power BI.
• User 1 and user 2 would see the same data.
• If a 3rd user were to complete the same task i.e. load data into Power BI approximately 5 hours later, user 3 would see an updated set of data.
• This data would be different to what was displayed for user 1 and user 2.
• This is due to the 4-hour caching window for the LEAP endpoints.
-
Troubleshooting may involve checking credentials, network settings, and ensuring the data source is accessible.
-
Power BI Connectors typically require an internet connection, especially for cloud-based data sources. However, data cached during a refresh can be used offline for viewing reports.
-
Power BI provides options to securely store and manage credentials. It is recommended to use service accounts and follow best practices for securing sensitive information.
