Getting data from google drive folder
- 4 months ago
Hi ahmedshalabyy12,
Thank you for reaching out to the Fabric Community. I am happy to assist you in resolving this issue.
Currently, Power BI does not support a native Google Drive connector.
However, you can use the Google Sheets connector to import data from your specific sheets and tabs.
Here are the outlined steps to achieve this:
1) Open Power BI Desktop > Get Data > Google Sheets.
2) Select the Google Sheets option; you will be prompted to enter the URL of the spreadsheet you wish to connect.
Note: Upon clicking "Connect," a prompt will appear. Please click Continue to proceed.
3) You will be prompted to sign in with your Google account; please log in using the account associated with the spreadsheet.
4) After sucessfull signin it will ask you to pick up the tab/table from your sheet. you can then load them or transform data using the button below and start creating your dashboard/report.
If you find this response helpful, kindly consider marking it as the accepted solution and giving it a kudos. This helps others facing similar issues and is greatly appreciated.
