A critical part of data integration and the suite of products it supports—Power Apps, Power Automate, Power BI, and Power Query—is connectivity to external data sources. The connector platform has two key objectives: providing a platform that allows partners and customers to develop connectors efficiently and providing a rich set of connectors for customers.

As part of platform investments, we provide a rich set of tools, samples, and documentation to help partners and customers build connectors. We also invest in our certification processes and tools for connectors so that partners can get their connectors certified and make them available on the platform. A key investment here is also geared towards leveraging the larger community by open-sourcing connectors.

Along with strengthening the ISV community's ability to create their own connectors, we plan to continue making investments in enterprise-grade data connectors.
