    I have data files available in AWS S3 and I need to read and join them to generate reports in Power BI. Is there a direct or indirect way to read data from AWS S3?

    ZappySys has ODBC Driver for XML/JSON API which can be used to pull data directly from AWS S3 or other AWS API (e.g. Athena, EC2, Billing API). See below Post
