Hi All,
I understand the Webtrends connection is in beta but I thought you might be able to help me with a puzzling question. I am using Power BI professional and I have no problem connecting to the analytics database of webtrends the problem is I do not appear to be able to see all the data objects that I can see in the Webtrends browser interface. I tried getting the webtrends custodian to temporarily upgrade my privileges to the highest level in case it was something to do with permissions but that had no effect and in any case I am using the same account and profile to access in power BI as I use to log into the webtrends database via my browser. A webtrends analyst did comment that the BI Navigator View looked like a standard view you might see for a webtrends database "Out of the Box" and most of the reports and datasets I cannot see are those created through local customisation but I would have thought any connector should be able to detect and access such objects. The webtrend database tables I can see I am able to access and import into power BI and visualise on dashboards, I just dont see everything I think I should. Anyway below is a Power BI of my work webtrends database and the view of the same database via the web browser interface so you can see what I mean
Power BI sees:
Power Bi Navigator View Webtrends
This is what I see in the browser view in particular I want to be able to extract the output of the ODS codes used report into Power BI but I cannot see it in Navigator. I should add I am quite new to Webtrends so if I am missing something idiotic apologies
Can only see a small subset of these objects in Navigator
Any help\Comments greatly appreciated
