This will create a public issue which anybody can view and comment on.
Please provide as much information as possible. At least, this should include a description of your issue and steps to reproduce the problem. If possible please provide a summary of what steps or workarounds you have already tried, and any docs or articles you found (un)helpful.
Problem you have encountered: The possibility of exporting Recommendations from the Active Assist -> Recommendation HUB into PowerBI as it would allow different users to efficiently manage their recommendations without the need of a BigQuery Dataset.
What you expected to happen: Currently on the GCP side, there is the Recommendation API [1] which can be used to access the data using curl commands, however there is no possibility to connect PowerBI with it, in order to configure a connector that would export the GCP Recommendations data.
Therefore, we would like to have a way to access data from the Recommendation HUB without the need of firstly exporting it into BigQuery using BigQuery Export [2] and then connecting PowerBI with the BQ dataset.
Steps to reproduce: In every GCP Project there is the Active Assist page which contains the Recommendation Hub that suggests what changes could be done in the project in order to ensure that you reduce the cost generated by the resources consumed [3].
Other information (workarounds you have tried, documentation consulted, etc): From the Google Cloud Support side, after discussing with a Specialist in BigQuery and Recommendation Hub export process, we have understood that currently in order to access the Recommendation Hub data without accessing the BQ dataset, it would require the possibility of creating a connector from PowerBI to the Recommendation HUB and GCP does not provide these connectors, as the connector will be the one that calls the API to receive data. Similar to the Simba driver that exists to connect to BigQuery.
