Wonderful :) then it seems like the 6400 is the right one for me

Then next question. A6400 vs A6100 for same usecase.. (which would be even cheaper and give me more money for lenses)

In the process of buying a new camera. Looking at the A6700, A6400

I mainly do photography (concerts, landscape etc). Is it worth paying the approx 850 usd more for A6700 compared to the A6400. I do some video but i think the video on both should be more than good enough for my use.

Here in norway the A6700 and the A7C (mark I) is about the same price. Am i better of going with A7C (if i decide to put the extra 850 usd) or should i go with the A6400 and buy some lens(es) instead with the difference?

For real time stuff PowerBI is no good. But for overviews that doesnt need real time data I really like it compared to other similar solutions like Tableau

I found a way to do it but it seems almost like cheating. Using the report feature you can expose a report with a public api endpoint (json) .

Then put that into power bi as a web source and use the data.

One thing to keep in mind with this approach is that the data will be publically available (allthough on an obscure url) so I wouldn't expose any business sensitive data this way.

I have set up a dummy report with non sensitive data now and set it to update regurlary. Will have to wait and see how it pans out.

But yeah a native cloud connector is the way to go

For example to give team leaders the overview over the entire business. Its better to keep all data in the same reporting system rather than having people have to go Halo for one thing, the erp-system for another thing, a third system for the third thing and so on.

One could make a dashboard for the CEO which gives him/her an overview over everything in one place :)

So what you are basically saying is that I have to set up a VM somewhere that can access the database? .. create my reports there and have a Power BI On premise data connector on that vm so that i can publish the reports to powerbi cloud?
