Hi, Yes, I made it work.   Please use this as server name:   http://(ip address of your cloudera VM):50070/webhdfs/v1/user/cloudera/(the name of the directory which you want to import)   example:   http://127.0.0.1:50070/webhdfs/v1/user/cloudera/sensordata ... View more

  Hi Rusty M,   Please read this post after my last post as a continuation of the last one.   I saved a csv file in HDFS and tried to import it into Power BI. When I do that, Power BI considers it as a Binary file and when I try to open it, Power BI pops up an error message as shown below.   Please guide.         ... View more

Hi Rusty M,   I am trying to do the same thing as you did. I am able to see all the files and directories in my HDFS when I connect Power BI to HDFS. But I cannot actually pull the data from those files. Power BI sees these files as binary files and for the queries only imports parameters like data executed, folder path etc and DOES NOT seem to import the data in the files. I have tried to import an xlsx file and a text file into Power BI which were stored in HDFS.   Can you please guide me on how to import a excel xlsx file stored into the HDFS and import it into Power BI?   Please do see the attached image below. To connect to the HDFS from Power BI, I am using the IP address of the Cloudera VM (I assume this is the correct way to connect to HDFS from Power BI). Here is the complete URL for connecting Power BI ti HDFS.     http://<ip address of the VM>:50070/webhdfs/v1/user/cloudera/output_join11   http://<ip address of the VM>:50070/webhdfs/v1/user/cloudera/words.txt   Is it some kind of a driver issue or is it something that I am missing. Please answer considering the fact that I am just a beginner trying to learn cloudera and Visualization tools.   Thanks in advance.   ... View more
