SQLite is one of the most used Database Management Systems in the World! I think it would be important to have a specific connector for SQLite, especially since I had problems trying to connect Power BI to SQLite via ODBC.

RE: Connector for SQLite

Yes, I can't agree more with "George Santiago on 6/7/2018 4:00:53 AM" and "Power BI User on 7/5/2020 11:27:45 PM" almost everyone who touch any electronic device uses SQLite - who in Microsoft is responsible for the fact it is not implemented. I wonder if the stock holders and CEO Mr. Nadela knows about it. I'm stockholder myself and I do not like it a bit ! that someone out there does not support the most used DB system on the planet. It decreases value of my portfolio - since the people who use SQLite obviously will not use PowerBI and not pay thereafter - rather promoting other competitive systems or frameworks.

RE: Connector for SQLite

SQLite is not only open source, it's in the public domain. There are absolutely no licensing issues. Please add a connector. Thanks.

RE: Connector for SQLite

Yes please add a direct connector for SQLLite without the difilculty of ODBC... Microsoft support SQLite with .NET Core and with Xamarin for cross-platform developement (Mobile, Linux, MacOS, IOS.) SQLite is evrywhere except in PowerBI!
