If you switch to the new connector, you will not be able to update existing reports. If you would like to take advantage of the new Power BI Connector, please review the documentation below.

What Liongard data gets pushed to Power BI?

By default, the Connector will import a few sets of data, like Environments, Inspectors, Inspector Types, Metrics, and Agents. You will also have the ability to push over Metric values which can be used for report building within Power Bi.
