Hi,
I have a personal winter project to learn about how Power BI can improve my workflow.
Case is that I have a projects server volume with project reports as excel files. All the excel files are structured the same way but they reside in project folders. We have the folder structured as
p://area/year/project number/discipline/sustainability/...and here I have the two excel files...
One way that requires programmig that I'm not capable of is to automate BI to run though the whole folder structure and load everything under each and every "sustainability" folder. We have about 300 project each year and I assume this would be time consuming even if I got it to work.
Another way is to export to excel files into one single dedicated folder instead. This folder would then contain hundreds of excel files but it would be easy to automate the data import.
Your two cents? I lean towards the second way with one folder...

@maknu , My advice would be to put them in a single folder. if possible on the SharePoint folder. That will keep it easy and clean
