Hi,
I am able to connect Sharepoint to Power BI but can only view documents from the "File folder" or the ones that I am the owner of. I want to access the "Shared" folder and then pick the doc that I need to load. How can I achieve this?
Thanks,
Sailee

Hi @saipawar ,
If you want to connect to sharepoint to get file, you could refer to my previous post for details.

Thanks @dax
I was able to get access to the root folder and then copy the original file under "My Files" .
Now I can view the file when I connect to Power BI
