Thanks for your response.

Unfortunately, Its not solved. In my case ecah Json files having different data (few files having more data& few are having less).
I tried with sample data too, but its throwing error.

Thanks for your reply Greg,

I am able to import all Json files into Power BI by connecting to the folder. But when I apply the dynamic appending/ combining files it is throwing error.

Problem is when you click combiner button it invokes Record.ToTable(Source) funtions. Just change this function to Table.FromRecords(Source). Hope this solves your problem.
