Installing the Connector
The Power BI Connector for TIBCO(R) Data Virtualization includes comprehensive high-performance data access, real-time integration, extensive metadata discovery, and robust SQL-92 support.
Install the Connector
Complete the following steps to install the connector:
1. Download and run the Tibco Data Virtualization setup. Refer to the Installation Guide for instructions on installing TDV.
2. Setup prompts you to install Microsoft Visual C++ Redistributable for Visual Studio 2017, if it is not already installed. Proceed with the installation.
3. Once the installation is complete, click Finish.
The installation process creates a data source name (DSN) called Power BI TDV. A DSN is the name that applications use to request a connection to a data source.
Note: The Microsoft C++ Redistributable package only needs to be installed once. Subsequent installs of newer Power BI drivers will identify that the C++ Redistributable package is already installed on the machine and will not launch the installer for it again.
