Bug Description

1. I'm developing , building and deploy a connector for OpenSearch in PowerBi. When I try to access to the information of a JSON file with file = File.Contents(<path>), it gives me an error:

Microsoft.Mashup.Engine.Interface.UnpermittedResourceAccessException

The command is tested as inline command from another user Help-request and so, without SDK, work.

2. Also, a global variable (declared outside any other object or functions) is read-accessible from other objects or function but not writable even though the IDE mark the variable as [section-member] and assigning a valid value.

Steps to Reproduce

1.Launch Visual Studio Code 2. Compile the project 3. Transfer the .mez file to to proper PowerBI folder 4. Run PowerBI and test

Actual Experience

1. It does not complete the compiling.
2. Runtime byzantine error as the variable is not modified.

Expected Experience

1. Compile.
2. The value of the variable should change with a new value assigned.

Additional Context

No response

Reproduce both reports with Power Query SDK 0.4.0 on Windows 11 in VS Code 1.88.1, following the listed compile, deployment, and Power BI steps. Investigate the local JSON access failure and the global variable assignment behavior separately; done means the connector compiles and the assigned variable value changes at runtime.
