Hi fellow mates,

I just downloaded the sample files to follow the tutorial. But when I try to "Get Data" using Excel, nothing but "info" sheet as in the attached file.

Your kindl advise is really appreciated. Thanks.

Hi @Anonymous,

 

By my test, for your requirement, we should import the excecl workbook directly in Power BI Desktop like below, then you could see the tables in Power BI.
