Error importing files from Sharepoint folder into data flow
Hello,
I'm trying to build a data flow to import and combine all the files inside a directory in a Sharepoint.
I'm using "Import from Sharepoint folder" button, and paste the following URL:
https://xxxx.sharepoint.com/sites/LOL/Documentos%20Partilhados/MyFolder/
Although this is returning the error:
Ocorreu uma exceção: DataSource.Error: Microsoft.Mashup.Engine1.Library.Resources.HttpResource: Falha do pedido:
Versão de OData: 3 e 4, Erro: The remote server returned an error: (404) Not Found. (Not Found)

Anonymous thank you so much for helping!
I've managed to combine the files stored in SP folder, the only thing is: if the files are stored in a OneDrive for business folder what URL should be used?
