[mali130]

Hi Folks,

I have an excel sheet which will have three new tabs created everyday, i want Power BI to autimatically read data in new tabs created so i can use the latest data to keep the graphs updated. Is it possible ? would really appreciate your response.

Thanks,

Hi @mali130 ,

This is possible if the tab is named after a date or if the table has a date field.

 Go to the Power Query editor, in the Source step, the [Name] column is the name of each workbook, and the [Data] column is the data table, and the metadata will be appended to a master table when expanded consistently.

If there is a date column, you can refresh the data and add a filter in the formula with the date equal to the maximum date to make the chart show the latest data.
