Posted on by Abdo Khoury 14,855

Dear 

I have configured PowerBI on Test environment using MS SQL server , and created the "Entity Stores" through visual studio , and PowerBI is functional. 

however we are moving production environment soon , and i have a concern as to how to view the "Entity Stores" (through OData) once we are in the Production without access SQL or Visual Studio?

appreciate your feedback on this that

regards

    I think you can access the prod entity store only from the Power BI reports that you have embedded in D365FO workspaces. The database connection is handled by D365FO.

    Dear Nikolaos

    thank you for your input, but we can't use the PowerBI embedded in Dynamics , because of limitation in report customization , and we prefer to use PowerBI desktop, is there any other solution?

    thank you

    You could export Entity store to Azure Data Lake and then access it with Power BI Desktop.

    docs.microsoft.com/.../entity-store-data-lake

    This feature is not yet generally available, as it says in the article. You need to contact the DSE team via LCS Service request (on your implementation project) to have the flighted features enabled.
