    SDMX is one of the main protocols used for transmit statistical data from International organizations such has Eurostat. It is currently possible to connect PowerBI to it, but there is a lot of work to do, concerning the query. If we have a get data source for SDMX would be great.

    SDMX is supported by StatCan, the Canadian economic data warehouse. A proper connector would be extremely useful.

    We work with open data hub, and that is the only source available there. That will be great if that option is provided in Power BI.

    Hi Carlos!

    I couldn't find the way to write to you directly. I am currently struggling with the SDMX connection. Could you be so kind to explain how it can be achieved in Power BI?

    This would be a fanatic addition to Power BI. It is probably not getting votes as people who work with SDMX data are using other tools. This addition could open up Power BI to a whole new user group. Please look into this one.

    This would certainly make it a lot easier to pull some of the data that we want from the ABS into Power BI.
