Hi @Anonymous ,
If you want to connect to SharePoint online folder in Power BI Desktop, please use SharePoint Folder connector and use the URL as below, and choose organizational account method .

In addition, the Incremental refresh can significantly reduce data refresh duration, especially for large model tables. See more: Incremental refresh in Power BI Premium .
You may try to improve the performance for the data model, see Power BI performance best practices , Power BI Performance Tips and Techniques.
