> Speckle is the first AEC data hub that connects with your favorite AEC tools. Speckle exists to overcome the challenges of working in a fragmented industry where communication, creative workflows, and the exchange of data are often hindered by siloed software and processes. It is here to make the industry better.

Speckle Connector and 3D Viewer Visual for Power BI
|
||
</h3>
|
||
|
||
# Features
|
||
|
||
Speckle Power BI Data Connector lets you easily get data from Speckle into Power BI reports and visualizations. You can access and analyze data from various AEC apps (like Revit, Archicad, Grasshopper, and more) and open-source files (IFC, STL, OBJ, etc.) into Power BI with ease.
|
||
|
||
Speckle’s connection to Power BI consists of two parts:
|
||
|
||
- **Data Connector** fetches the data you uploaded from AEC apps to Speckle.
|
||
- **3D Visual** allows you to see those models in 3D within Power BI.
|
||
|
||
|
||
|
||
# Repo Structure
|
||
|
||
This repo is home to our Power BI connector. The Speckle Server provides all the web-facing functionality and can be found [here](https://github.com/specklesystems/Server).
|
||
|
||
`src/powerbi-data-connector` contains all the code for the Data connector.
|
||
|
||
`src/powerbi-visual` contains all the code for 3D Visual.
|
||
|
||
# Installation
|
||
|
||
Speckle connector can be installed directly from [Manager for Speckle](https://speckle.systems/download/). Full instructions for [installation](https://speckle.guide/user/powerbi/installation.html) and [configuration](https://speckle.guide/user/powerbi/configuration.html) can be found on our docs.
|
||
|
||
# Using 3D Visual
|
||
|
||
3D Visual can be imported as any other Power BI custom visual.
|
||
|
||
1. Navigate to the Visualization Pane.
|
||
2. Click the three dots (…) and select “Import a visual from a file”.
|
||
3. Go to `Documents/Power BI Desktop/Custom Visuals` and import `Speckle 3D Visual.pbiviz` file.
|
||
4. Speckle cube will appear in the Visualization pane.
|
||
|
||
For more on how to use the visual, [check our docs](https://speckle.guide/user/powerbi-visual/introduction.html).
|
||
|
||
# Usage
|
||
|
||
To get started with Power BI connectors, please take a look at the [documentation](https://speckle.guide/user/powerbi/introduction.html) and extensive [tutorials](https://www.youtube.com/playlist?list=PLlI5Dyt2HaEsZHG2WJ75WIM0Brx6VHT2S) published.

||
|
||
# **Developing & Debugging**
|
||
|
||
We encourage everyone interested to debug/hack/contribute/give feedback to this project.
|
||
|
||
## **Setup**
|
||
|
||
### **Install PowerQuery SDK**
|
||
|
||
Follow the instructions from the [official docs](https://docs.microsoft.com/en-us/power-query/installingsdk)
|
||
|
||
### **Build with Visual Studio**
|
||
|
||
Every time you build the connector, VisualStudio will copy the latest `.mez` connector file to the appropriate location. Just restart PowerBI to see the latest changes.
|
||
|
||
### **Debug**
|
||
|
||
You can start the PowerQuery connector in VisualStudio, this will open a standalone connector you can use for testing purposes.
|
||
|
||
We don't know of a way to debug the connector live in PowerBI, but we'd be happy to hear about it.
