Hi everybody, I have delta tables in my azure data lake, created by databricks spark jobs. Now I want to load the data into power bi, what is the reccomended way, do I need to start my cluster/endpoint and allow PowerBi to connect that, or can power bi read the delta format from the lake. many thanks.

Here’s the PowerBI connector: https://github.com/delta-io/connectors/tree/master/powerbi

Is it best to use a warehouse on top of the lake, like databricks warehouse or synapse?

I’m biased, but I would say that never using synapse is the recommendation for all possible use cases.
