Unfortunately I popped this connector of the logic board. The part is no longer usable, but the MacBook still works on power (with reduced CPU).
Does anyone know what this part is called? Its the connector that connects a data cable coming from the battery to the logic board.
Macbook is an A1707 model MacBook Pro Mid-2016.
Es esta una buena pregunta?

@jodldoe just do a search based on the actual connector number, which is FF14A-6C-R11DL-B-3H That connector is available at places like this for USD$12.80 for a lot of 10. Other places like this charge around USD$35 for 10. Again, they are available. Even if you spend $35 on the replacement, you can get this resoldered for way less than a new board would cost you. This connector https://www.jae.com/de/connectors/series... has different dimension, compared to the datasheet of the original connector. It might fit the contacts, but will not match the mating cable.
Do not use a hot air gun since you are going to melt the connector. This is a connector that requires a proper soldering iron, flux and solder. Fix it. You got that.
Repair is War on Entropy!!!!!!

Here’s the needed part BMU Cable Connector
You will need to use a hot air rework station with a narrow nozzle to first clean up the old solder so the connector can be properly placed and soldered down.

Thank you! This is exactly what I am looking for, but unfortunately this seems to be out of stock internationally.
Do you know if this part would work as well? its the most similar I could find.
@jodldoe - Hard to tell as it’s a CAD drawing which is just not very well done.
Do you still have the original part? If you do order one and physically compare them.
Note the quantity is 8000 units so you may get more than you expect ($$$).
See if they are willing an engineering sample, you should setup a mail drop so you can create a proper business address and company name that sounds like a company that would order more parts. And lastly a business checking account (debit card)

The part you are looking for is called the Battery Charging Connector, and it is located on the logic board of your MacBook Pro (A1707 model) from mid-2016.
It connects a data cable from the battery to the logic board, allowing power to be delivered to the device.
Unfortunately, since this connector has been popped off of your logic board, it is no longer usable and will need to be replaced in order for power to be supplied efficiently. You can find replacement parts online or at an authorized Apple repair center.

Sadly Apple won’t fix this instead will force a logic board swap out and may force a battery replacement too!
Will need to find an independent repair shop with the deeper soldering skills to attach the connector if they don’t have the needed tools.
Thank you. Dan is correct, the repair shop I contacted said I need to replace the logic board.
Another commenter suggested this part, which would be exactly what I am looking for but unfortunately is out of stock everywhere.
do you know how much that repair costs if i get the part myself or if i dont by any chance?
