Can i connect power bi to Azure Hdinsight directly? And how do i do go about doing it?
I have tried googling online but there isn't any article with clear instruction on this. It is deploy under azure Vnet as well.
As of today, Azure HDInsight HBase is not supported to connect Power BI.

I am able to find enough blog/posts on how to use Power BI to analyze Azure cognitive search data. But what I am looking is exactly opposite of this.
Can we use Azure cognitive search inside/for power BI reports to query on power BI data? Basically a search bar in power BI or anywhere in app that can do the following : -
Query on Power BI data sources and return visualization.
for example :- top 5 hotels by people visited result in relevant visualization.
smart enough like Azure cognitive search to understand human search errors.
FYI I have already explored QnA visualization of power BI, but I still want to explore the possibility of leverage Azure cognitive search instead of that.
I have my data stored in sql server in Azure VM and Azure blob storage.
is it possible? if yes can someone please share relevant links/videos to help me accomplish that.
Azure Cognitive Search can send operation logs and service metrics to an Azure Storage account, which you can then visualize in Power BI.
Refer this document for detail description.
Power BI provides access to a set of functions from Azure Cognitive Services to enrich your data in the self-service data prep for Dataflows. The services that are supported today are Sentiment Analysis, Key Phrase Extraction, Language Detection, and Image Tagging.
These options are running based on the power of Azure Cognitive Services. These Azure services are leveraged within Power BI by a few simple clicks.
For more details refer this document.
You can build the Power BI solution with Azure Cognitive Services, without using the Power BI Premium for more details refer this document
Azure Data Catalog gen1 allowed us to get metadata from tables inside a Databricks workspace, by using ODBC connection. Do we have have ODBC connectivity for Azure Purview too? If so, can someone share the details?
Unfortunately, ODBC connectivity for Azure Purview is not supported.

I would like to use our azure search index as data source for Power BI dashboard/report. Is there any azure search service connector available for power bi like document DB connector ?.
I don't know where the data is stored in the Azure Search? Please suggest me a way for connecting the data with power BI.
Note: Not asking about the Azure Search Traffic Analytics.https://powerbi.microsoft.com/en-us/blog/visualizing-azure-search-data-with-power-bi/
Thanks in Advance!
I understand you are not interested in traffic analytics. I am also assuming that you are not interested in displaying index statistics.
The actual structure of the "inverted index" created using Azure Search is not exposed, so there is no way for you to visualize it in PowerBI.

I am creating a dashboard with database that is hosted on Azure, I can setup a connection with azure database in power bi desktop but real time streaming is not possible in case of power bi desktop. It's possible if I create a dashboard in Power BI online.
But in power bi online I don't have option for data modeling. I want to know is there any way I can perform some data modelling or transformation ?
Please provide some link also if possible.
Thanks for your time.
According to this: https://azure.microsoft.com/en-us/blog/unleashing-insights-from-data-in-documentdb-with-power-bi/ DocumentDB connector is available for both Power Bi online and Power Bi Desktop.
But when I go to Get Data -> Databases in Power Bi online, I do not see any way to connect to Document DB. I can see the connector only in Power Bi Desktop.
Is Document DB supported as data source in Power Bi online? if no, is there any workaround to make it work? I have a requirement to feed schema-less data (located in Azure) to Power Bi online, I'm searching for any way to do it, whether this is Document DB or some other NoSQL database
please allow me to clarify that connectivity to a DocumentDB account via PowerBI.com is actually there. Currently, the "Get Data" in PowerBI.com only offers data sources with DirectQuery capability. Please see this article on DirectQuery. We are working to support DirectQuery in future. For now, there are two ways to push DocumentDB data to PowerBI.com. The first method is what Denny has suggested: build the report via PowerBI Desktop and publish the report to PowerBI.com. The second method is to leverage PowerBI API to connect and push data from a DocumentDB account to PowerBI.com.
First of all, I'd like to apologize for my initial answer as I completely missed your key issue about utilizing Power BI Online. Allow me to try to make amends by attempting a more complete and proper answer.
In the case of Power BI Online, because the Power BI-to-DocumentDB connector is currently in beta, it is not available as a data source within Power BI Online under the Get Data section as you noted. Saying this, you can create a connection to DocumentDB using the Power BI desktop, publish it to Power BI Online, and then refresh it within Power BI Online. Following the "Power BI tutorial for DocumentDB: Visualize data using the Power BI connector" tutorial, here is a screenshot of running the data refresh on PowerBI.com using the credentials to your DocumentDB database.
Note, there are is already a request on the Power BI Ideas forum to have DocumentDB available directly within Power BI Online - you can read more and vote for it (if appropriate) at: https://ideas.powerbi.com/forums/265200-power-bi-ideas/suggestions/7160908-documentdb.
