Helper IIIHow to edit sheet name in Excel doc when source is a folder
Hi, MichaelF1
I probably understand what you mean, but you may need to change your thought and try to use dynamic data sources by using different dates in table names.
You can refer to it first:

Then if you have any specific questions, please feel free to ask me.

Helper IIIHi amitchandak , thanks for the reply.
Your video shows how to change the data source if you change the name of the excel file itself, but I want to edit the name of the actual tab in the file. Hope this makes sense, I'll attach the error message.
Thanks again,
Michael
Super UserMichaelF1 , Change sheet name in Item
Source = Excel.Workbook(File.Contents("C:\Users\Amit Chandak\Downloads\PivotData (1).xlsx"), null, true),
Pivot_Sheet = Source{[Item="Pivot",Kind="Sheet"]}[Data],
Pivot is my sheet name

amitchandak My datasource is a folder, not a single file:
let Source = Folder.Files("C:\Users\.....\PowerBIData\data sources\moves_adjusts"), #"Filtered Hidden Files1" = Table.SelectRows(Source, each [Attributes]?[Hidden]? <> true), #"Invoke Custom Function1" = Table.AddColumn(#"Filtered Hidden Files1", "Transform File", each #"Transform File (2)"([Content])), #"Renamed Columns1" = Table.RenameColumns(#"Invoke Custom Function1", {"Name", "Source.Name"}), #"Removed Other Columns1" = Table.SelectColumns(#"Renamed Columns1", {"Source.Name", "Transform File"}), #"Expanded Table Column1" = Table.ExpandTableColumn(#"Removed Other Columns1", "Transform File", Table.ColumnNames(#"Transform File (2)"(#"Sample File (2)"))), #"Changed Type" = Table.TransformColumnTypes(#"Expanded Table Column1",{{"Source.Name", type text}, {"TransactionDate", type date}, {"TransactionTime", type time}, {"TransactionType", type text}, {"Tra Text 1", type any}, {"ItemCode", type text}, {"ProductCode", type text}, {"NumberOf", Int64.Type}, {"LocaCodeFrom", type text}, {"LocGroupCodeFrom", type text}, {"LocaCodeTo", type text}, {"LocGroupCodeTo", type text}, {"Operatorcode", type text}}),- v-janeyg-msft
