Connect Flow to Network Drive shared folder

Hello, I am trying to create a data flow with origin of a folder in Assigned Network Drive that is currently hosted on Z drive, but it has not left me for credential issues, at the time of entering username and password I place the same ones that I have used for other sources of the computer and it does not work, Generates credential problem. What should I consider to let me access? any settings in the folder? and what should I take for credentials

Thank you very much!

  • Syndicate_Admin , Credential here are one of the window machine where you have the gateway. If the network Drive needs additional credentials, then I doubt this is the right method. Your window user should have access to network drive

  • Were you able to solve it? 'Cause I have the same problem and it's already giving me anxiety

  • There are two options, that the file is in OneDrive, if it is there it can be linked directly as a data source, but in my case that the file was in a local shared folder a virtual machine had to be used, to that machine the folder was enabled and that way it connects through gateway and is constantly updated as needed.
