powerquery from folder
- 1 year ago
When you use "Folder" as a source in Power Query, it usually spins up a helper function, sample file parameter, and sample file query all inside a folder in your list of Queries. I don't see that here.
Also, the Folder source only works out of the box if you have flat files (CSV or txt). If you want to use it on Excel (and I see a bit of "...xlsx" in one of the columns, you need to do additional work. So how did you combine multiple Excel files to get ONE table? Was it a UNION ?
