  "textContent": "🚨\n\n**Major Update:** This post contains a significant change that may impact your organisation.\n\n**[Introduction]**\n\nWe’re **retiring the Impala connector** across Copilot Studio, Logic Apps, Power Apps, and Power Automate. This change aligns with our efforts to streamline our connector catalog, reduce maintenance of legacy components, and focus on modern, widely adopted data connectivity options. After this retirement, the Impala connector will no longer be supported.\n\n**[When this will happen]**\n\n  * Retirement begins: **April 1, 2026**\n  * Retirement completed: **April 14, 2026**\n\n\n\n**[How this affects your organization]**\n\n_Who is affected_\n\nOrganizations using the Impala connector in any of the following services:\n\n  * Copilot Studio (Premium)\n  * Logic Apps (Standard)\n  * Power Apps (Premium)\n  * Power Automate (Premium)\n\n\n\n_What will happen_\n\n  * The Impala connector will be retired and removed from Copilot Studio, Logic Apps, Power Apps, and Power Automate.\n  * Existing connections using the Impala connector will stop functioning after the retirement window.\n  * New connections using the Impala connector will no longer be allowed.\n  * The connector and its actions—including Get row, Get rows, and Get tables—will no longer be accessible.\n\n\n\n**[What you can do to prepare]**\n\nTo reduce service disruption:\n\n  * Review your apps, flows, and Logic Apps that currently use the Impala connector.\n  * Migrate any dependencies to supported alternative connectivity solutions (for example, connector options that support your organization’s Hadoop‑based environments).\n  * Notify users and solution owners who rely on this connector.\n  * Update internal documentation, runbooks, and helpdesk scripts to remove references to the Impala connector.\n  * Learn more about the connector’s current capabilities and behavior through our documentation: Apache Impala | Connector reference | Connectors | Microsoft Learn\n\n\n\nIf your apps or flows require ongoing connectivity to Impala endpoints, consult your data platform owners to determine your long‑term connectivity strategy.\n\n**[Compliance considerations]**\n\nNo compliance considerations identified. Review as appropriate for your organization.",
