Connect Power BI to Smartsheet EU Region
Hi, I'm trying to connect from Power BI to data in the Smartsheet EU region. Every solution I find seems to use the default instance, with no way to configure for use with the Europe instance.
I've already reviewed the following options:
I'm trying to avoid building out some API solution from scratch. Has anyone used a solution that allows connection to the Europe instance?

Genevieve P. Employee AdminHi@BretM
You're correct, there currently isn't a way to connect the EU Region to Power BI. I would suggestadding this Idea to Microsoft's forumso they're aware that this is something you would find useful in the future, as they review the Power BI connector with Smartsheet.
Thanks!

Hi, I have exactly the same problem regarding the integration between PowerBi and the Smartsheet EU platform. If anyone has found a solution, I'm interested!

Hi@BretM, have you found a solution to use PowerBi on the Smartsheet EU platform?

Nothing simple, no. For now, I'm using the Smartsheet API to extract information to a database table and then connecting Power BI to those tables.
I did add a suggestion to the Microsoft forum but I haven't heard anything yet.

Thank you@BretMfor the feedback, I will report an incident to Microsoft via our customer account. See if that gets things going.

Microsoft response :
I apologize of the late answer, but our Product Group team dedicated to this connector was confirming this point.
Unfortunately, I don’t have good news, as of now it’s not possible to change the connection URL and our Product Group does not have this planned to happen.
Our public documentation will be updated with that information:
The Smartsheet connector only supports connecting tohttps://app.smartsheet.com. There are currently no plans to support other domains or regions.
I understand these weren’t the news you’re hoping to hear.

I'm not sure, but you can trySkyviaas an alternative solution. It is a no-code cloud ETL tool.
