How do we connect Power BI to Oracle Business Intelligence Enterprise (OBIEE)

Hi All,
Can we connect power bi to Oracle Business Intelligence Enterprise (OBIEE) without a third-party connector? mentioned here, Power BI OBIEE Connector [Free Tool] | BI Connector?

Power bi seems to have a certified connector to OBIEE ( BI connector listed in the Get data option), but this requires installing a third-party driver from this particular vendor (which isn’t Free !?), any idea to workaround on this issue???

Thank you

Hi @jojo,

Yes you are right that there were a microsoft certified connector to OBIEE. There was a great read on how to connect OBIEE to power BI. Link is here How to Connect Power BI to OBIEE (us-analytics.com).

Hi @ronald_balza,

Thank you for the excellent article but still, both ‘Unified BI’ and ‘BI Connector’ are third-party paid connectors. I was hoping for a direct connector from Power BI. My issue in this particular scenario is that I cannot directly construct my query from the Oracle DB because we don’t want to expose the tables, so the only option left is to read off from OBIEE subject areas.

Cheers!
