We have an saas based electronic billing application used by over 800 companies. We place report data files out on SFTP sites for each client. Is it possible to access data files on SFTP sites from Power BI?

RE: sftp

Please add a SFTP connector, this is an obvious gap in PowerBI today.

RE: sftp

SFTP file / folder connectivity would be awesome regarding reporting based on syslogs, etc.

RE: sftp

ftp is considered less secure and it is being banned from several companies as a mean of sharing internal information.

please consider adding a SFTP module for accessing files.

RE: sftp

We also have instances where it would be nice to import data from a SFTP site. This is available in competing products (clicdata.com).
