    RE: mongo db connector

    I would like to have a more native MongoDb interface (query) and response (JSON).

    RE: mongo db connector

    Hi Miguel - is there any tutorial on how to setup the Connection to MongoDB using an ODBC driver? For both Excel or Power BI Designer?

    I really think mongoDB addition would be a great feature to have. A lot of BI tools can not connect natively to mongoDB. Apart from the edge that it will give the Power BI suite, a standard ODBC and JDBC based connector suite would be a great addition for connecting to No-SQL databases. Cheers!

    Thanks for your feedback, Anmol.

    You can already connect to MongoDB using Excel/Power Query or the Power BI Designer, and using an ODBC driver.
