It requires a runtime of 8.3 or higher, but what is required on the PowerBI side of things if one uses the databricks connector? Does that connector run the newest ODBC Simba driver (2.6.17) which is required to get the improved query performance? Or does one have to use a custom ODBC connection in Power BI to utilize Cloud Fetch?</P> Fri, 21 Mar 2025 13:01:37 GMT https://community.databricks.com/t5/warehousing-analytics/powerbi-and-cloud-fetch/m-p/15086#M282 sondrewb 2025-03-21T13:01:37Z https://community.databricks.com/t5/warehousing-analytics/powerbi-and-cloud-fetch/m-p/15088#M284 <P>Hi @sondrewb​&nbsp;</P><P>The latest version of PowerBI is shipped with Databricks Connector running 2.6.17 ODBC Driver and therefore can be used to utilize Cloud Fetch</P> Fri, 01 Oct 2021 09:18:38 GMT https://community.databricks.com/t5/warehousing-analytics/powerbi-and-cloud-fetch/m-p/15088#M284 Navya_R 2021-10-01T09:18:38Z
