    If I didn't misunderstood you, when you refresh in power bi desktop your new added column will automatically be imported.

Hello Community

Does this video (https://youtu.be/YCCMCIktTdQ) by Ruth still stand good as of today to bring in added or deleted columns from Excel Data Source to Power BI without any issues or is there an updated feature or functionality from Microsoft Power BI?

Please let me know because I am in this situation too with business adding and deleting columns in the Excel Data Source.

Hoping to hear from you soon.

Kind regards, B
