Good afternoon, I'm looking for information on how to extract the name of the Excel file so that it appears in a column. I was looking for information on the forum/Google and the only thing I found so far is the "From Folder" function. In this case it is a single file so the option from folder is not viable to me since I could not save another Excel file in that with a different format because it would give error the PBI.
Thank you so much for the help!

No problem. Technically, you can still use 'From Folder' you would just need to filter to the file you're looking trying to load.
From my Desktop Folder:
Transform Data to filter to the file first
Filter then click:
Result after helper queries / transformations:
[Source.Name] contains the file name
