    Hi Anonymous,

     

    Which conncetor do you use when you get data from SharePoint?

     

    By my tests, if you use the connector SharePoint Online list, you could see the Author and Editor column.

        Hi Anonymous,

         

        By my tests, if you use the SharePoint folder connector to get data, I'm afraid that there is no column for the person's name who created the file.

         

        You could submit your idea in Power BI ideas Forum.
